welcome back you with the live from moscow with me ruler seem to show you a quick summary of the headlines not the calls of four israelis nationwide to join the country's biggest social protest to grow louder something they promise is to become another record breaking however some in tel aviv say the demonstrations are only benefiting the privileged. between police and politicians in the u.k. as david cameron slams officers for the poor handling of the street by turning instead to the us for advice courts are working day and night and heavy patrols are in the
9:31 am
streets to deal with the consequences of looting and rioting over the past week. rumors of insider trading and an accounting error worth two trillion dollars leave the standard and poor's rating agency facing a vengeful washington inquiry even as world markets continue to shift following the unprecedented u.s. debt downgrade. quite well if you stay with us here in our special report on russia's far east is coming your way next it's where echoes of the soviet era mixed with traditions that are centuries old and watching. sharing of times and little strangely situated just a few kilometers from the chinese border boss isn't exactly a short shot from moscow bunch of new german
9:32 am
a bit of jet lag you're going to enjoy one of the most shocks of sissy's in russia's far east. is the region's administrative sense of home to more than half a million people and a place that really small schools and some a. tourist some locals come out in force to enjoy the city's wide and picturesque laz and down by the river saw it there are plenty of places to work on your town. very close to. now apparently this is one of two places in the whole of russia. in the wild now in eastern tradition the opening of the petals to signify expansion of soul so i'm hoping that my trip to hell is going to be as well and i was going to start my journey down on the riverbank. hundred fifty years ago.
9:33 am
it links russia with china and. it's a great way to see the city and. residents . of cultures. so. it wasn't long before we were doing it. and as the guys fixed up the rigging i took the other. this is pretty easy perfect weather beautiful calm water great day just messing around in boats this is the eleventh longest river in the world but we were heading out to fall just enough to enjoy the water and get some great views.
9:34 am
but that's not the best way to get snow this river i can't think of one that said. it was trying to head back to drawing lines and for me to really start discovering the bars. if you want to find out about history there's one place that you have to visit this is the museum of regional law and it's the biggest and the most visited museum in the whole of the country's far east . one hundred nations thousand people step into this building every year and they get to enjoy a huge collection of exhibits from live local river residents to catch him so. one of the things that sets this place apart from most russian museums is that you can interact with the exhibits and today we've got some guests who come from even further east to see what life used to be like here in the far east of russia these schoolchildren
9:35 am
a visiting from japan and the museum store immediately have been taking part in some nineteenth century village chores and once they've checked out all the old tools it's time to really get into the swing of things. this is a way to live out the cost of the dusty music this place just the right. it's a proper authorities in russia. for kids to carry on the party and headed down to meet nicolo ruben the museum's director and offered to give me a personal tour and he has his own theory on why the region's ecosystem is so diverse. legend has it that when god was creating the world he planted the tiger and the tropics. but when he arrived here he only had a handful of seeds to toss around but he did have a bit of everything so we have a wide variety of plants in these parts from plain trees italian as to grapes and the same can be said about our fauna. this coalition of local wildlife is
9:36 am
a very popular exhibits and it includes one of the most famous and rare animals in russia poachers one of the main reasons why be a more target here is so terribly endangered but there is a place not too far from aurora which is doing its bit trying make sure the species doesn't. kloof wildlife sanctuary is about an hour's drive from the city limits refuge for injured or anonymous from the local region has. its role and opened by edward krugel who's been taking in lost souls for the best part of twenty years that he took me to meet some of the park's most recent arrivals. these are himalayan bears hopefully we'll be able to release them next spring but we need to feed them up first. and ward is looked after more than two hundred beds over the years and despite a lack of funds most of your fence avoid being separated from their mothers these
9:37 am
babies are only just a few months old here they were rescued in winter and brought here because the bigger better very popular for hunters for trophies for peace in china as well so it's very close. and these are the unfortunate ones who are high and. you can see for about five months old. but this is most famous resident has considerably taken. as one of the rarest cats left on the entire planet. twenty years old and still. coming to say. i'm so tempted to try and i hate. luther was born
9:38 am
here was a baby in the early nineties and he's been here ever since he's the sanctuary's only permanent residence and despite being positively ancient for a tiger it's still plenty of life in him. tiger is the biggest cats on the planet and can weigh more than three hundred kilos but the numbers are under serious threat and it's estimated there are only around four hundred fifty he left in russia's wilderness. and mourners doing his best to improve the chances he's raised and released almost a dozen young cubs but before he does i need special training is a little bit this. unfortunately the lure of the. jungle being what it is these little guys are actually used when they have wild tigers here to train them how to hunt because this would be the has in the forest around here would be the tigers natural prey and there are a few large dog it's wandering around here to hear also some rather unwilling
9:39 am
students of tiger school these two little there as well. very useful when you know how to hunt. fortunately for bugs. like is in residence at the moment so if the law continues to hold a little bit running away from will be a few curious tourists. but there are a vital part of making sure we get to the forests of the region. back in the city has been invited to see a different sort of conservation projects involving four wheels and four legs. seeing cars like this is enough to bring back a few bad memories of frustrated instructors the old mine a fault because this is where people in have come to take their driving tests but
9:40 am
the ministry of transport here isn't just concerned with getting new drivers started they're also responsible for getting some of the city's been beals. back out of. the direct holiness zero is passionate about he's got one of the largest collections of models in eastern russia and i think that's very true here i've got cars of all makes including those that were made in the one nine hundred thirty s. here you see four makes and military vehicles and one of those military models was waiting for us in the carriage down. this old truck delivered letters during the second world war and the mechanics have been trying to get it back on the road i think this one is almost. see. the magic touch. one of
9:41 am
the most. recent. work. clothes truck drives again. but trucks are just the tip of the iceberg. restoring. close some of the success story. from vintage folders to ukrainian beatles most of these cause if you see the launch of day on national holidays will special festivals and i was going to get a chance to take a couple of its missions the first day. where i mean one of these things would have made you can be very strong come down turn because this is going to be the one this
9:42 am
theory. is. that. you mustn't have to hit the gym six people under control but only one of these big powerful soldiers was just a dream for most of us citizens back in the one nine hundred sixty s. . but it seems that all communist culp's weren't quite so lucky. this may be the best police cut ever invented. little circles really this just careful for many people were smart oh. ok. so if you're going to give all of this training. it was a lot easier to drive a one woman what's even question it would have made a goddess. i'm not sure envy if these russian police but. we have the world's smallest and possibly funniest car with which to catch
9:43 am
criminals i'm not sure if it would be a good thing i know because either they just sort of stop and follow the law thing that you were trying to catch them in this poll they'd run too fast because they wouldn't want to be seen dead. but decided that if i didn't want a permanent couple of circuits in my mini most beechwood have to suffice but that wasn't going to be my last on the ball adventure. the are luck.
9:44 am
good. luck. odds. down the field official on t.v. allocation on the phone on pod touch from the choose ups to. life on the go. see video on demand copies mine gold costs and r.s.s. feeds now in the palm of your. question. called. the history of this place runs through the centuries. of powers eyes for archaeologists. and ecological tourists.

9:46 am
for the. we've got. the biggest issues get voice face to face with the news makers. financial struggle couple of real russian classic cars and. was ready for its best just yet this time the reps of it. now driving along in a bay all the rules is all well and good but sometimes you just feel a need for speed and there's a place in a forest where you really can come and burn some rubble. but your aim is to drive carefully first to circle the you hear me run it primarily concerns you who has been involved with racing for twenty five years and now runs the stream accosting club which takes part in competitions all over the russian far east he's already
9:47 am
trained several local champions including his son misha you offer to show me the ropes assuming i can fit in the car of course. well but three big for the distance. james sent up a little bit but look at that this is a this is an activity and so we go karts but after a handy push tools are a. couple who some young students but this is a school that takes dedication and money mostly because of italian chefs seasoned japanese engines they call simple dollars they can. races regularly get more than two hundred kilometers an hour it's a serious adrenaline rush. are you ok. i'll tell you what that is all some fun but is a little bit difficult when you're eating the schumacher is just here. it was time
9:48 am
to take things a little easier and i went off to find a man with a rather more sedate hobby. looks like these guys over here have gone in for some double glazing in one of the old buildings but. i know someone is going to be able to make good use of an old when it's over with. but the muses reclaimed pieces to repair and refurbish musical instruments and we were going to give an old guitar a new lease of life. in my siberian stern pine window sill was going to become a brand new sounding course. to fit together perfectly suited can make the front of the guitar. and once the planks have been playing down the old sounding board has to be removed. to. sorting through your kit so. you could play rhodes. was a bit q.c.
9:49 am
destroying its all good looking invent eames other instruments the results would be well worth it and also we've cut out the old boards and i went to work on one of his handmade sense pieces. unfortunately putting everything together can take up to the team wanted to show me exactly one of his creations so will. never thought that an old couple of friends it sounds like. i don't even see one conservation sense in me but it's not just land mammals that are getting a helping hand here. around fifteen years ago there were hundreds of tonnes of sturgeon and kalugin in the animal river but the fish is now critically endangered caviar is a valuable delicacy and poaching and overfishing have seen their numbers decline to such an extent that only two i don't specimens were documented to have been cools
9:50 am
in this area in two thousand and nine is a situation that the demas the fish mom is trying to change the team in his work as a breeding young imo sturgeon and kaluga are in captivity and then returning them to the walls so this is the who are they keep the food for the fish it looks like particularly lovely stuff. combination or insightful. your lawyer and some tiny a station and i mean very delicious young stood. but doesn't. the fish in these tanks are only a few bones old but a full grown kaluga can live as long as a human way up to it. is easy for saying boy about two thousand of these babies been in here you can see the pretty lively. now there anyway about thirty to forty grams past the perfect signs to give them the real
9:51 am
shots of survival in the river i think i can probably safely say that this may be the only time in my life i'm ever going to see a fish vacuum cleaner this is what is transposing our kaluga at all stages into the fact that we can then release it into the river later. it's like a quick definitely a means we've reached our quota of those times dry times the water so i'm riding in style here as we're just about to head off to the river and hopefully give these fish new lease of life releasing hundreds of leaves of measure of warmth can be a bit tricky though i may have to do a little riverside rescue work. so this is they so slow its it being given to these fish very soon we'll be taking them out on to the boats . in the hope they will find the right spot in the river so they can begin. the phones only been operating since two thousand and eight but they plan to breed up to three million fish a year which should give the kaluga and the animal sturgeon
9:52 am
a good chance of swimming in these waters in the decades to come. it's amazing to think that just a few years this little guy could be a few metres wide and a few hundred kilos in weight and hopefully we've given him the best chance of making it because of this size hopefully he'll survive for amazing good luck. he really did feel that we were helping to regenerate a river that's been supporting the people of this region since time immemorial. before i left a bar of i was going to meet some people whose ancestors had lived this way for millennia. area has been home to the indigenous non-o. which in their language means people for thousands of years and by the sounds of it . i think there is some kind of a still. there around twelve thousand living in russia and the
9:53 am
largest of the indigenous tribes it's widespread community but every year people come back for a summer party of music and dance but it does take course a bit. hopefully we will absolutely need this but just in case it doesn't rain. i should be able to keep everything nice and dry so this goes off without a hitch. everyone pitches in to help from the more mature to the very. well come what's your name you know james i'm not. here so it's not. over friendly here which is nice. this kind of gets everyone excited and they don't hold back on the entertainment. the way. today we're going to feed the spirit
9:54 am
of. this spirit is the master of find his name is to tell them i don't need to have tree that. will have it so much perception where we're going to feed the spirits of water. today there will also be a dragon of the dragons that have been borat from the chinese but it's not true that they're an ancient part of our culture to. write that this. is going to be one of the big sins pieces of tonight's bossie. cereal can bring it out so it doesn't fall down and we can really see how the nominee celebrate the culture. as soon as we've finished people started to arrive most of the towns watch a game of chalk which looks like a particularly dangerous splendor volleyball in the cross. and then it was sort of
9:55 am
adult thing. and. answer this is what the festival is really all about so it's for the next generation oh no need to get together and practice those traditions of their ancestors have been carrying on for centuries it's a village celebration a manual for everyone in the community to get together and really celebrate their culture the worst may be a long way from moscow but it's worth the effort to get here is out close to russia still racist has a rich history and a community that cares about the city and the future but it's a bar mitzvah. at least fifteen to twenty million years for the planet to recover from
9:56 am
a major extinction event but the planet has time we don't. it's been going on for months twenty forty five years and since it's been eco terrorists before there was even islamic fundamentalist terrorist in this country when a nine eleven happened the bush administration could not find any terrorists because the feds couldn't find any real terrorists they decided to take these young people who were accused of property sabotage and label them as terrorists someone you destroy property. with absolutely zero intention of harming a single human being. in my mind it's not fair it's real people who are green in this country are the housewives who recycle. and the children who play trees on the weekend with her cub scout troops that's the.
