where you have one large corporation controlling daily newspaper on radio stations television stations the cable. you tell me that that sounds like public opinion versus f.c.c. . blues. although i'm back here's a quick recap of the main stories we're covering here on our t.v. a deadly situation develops in northern kossovo as of may two implements a shoot to kill orders to break a roadblock built by local serbs near a disputed checkpoint the border crossing was seized two weeks ago by cos of a police sated by the alliance and since then the clashes have left several serbs injured. people in tripoli take to the streets angry at the former rebels still carrying guns into city hall that's as thousands flee one of the few remaining

gadhafi strongholds the city of sirte that's facing a serious humanitarian crisis. and operation occupy wall street and that inequality and corporate influence grows in the u.s. as protests spread into their third week and fury has turned towards the police calling a series of arrests and allegations of brutal behavior. and the artes who takes you on an exhilarating trip to russia's far east meet the rarest species of animals added mark which of beauties of the reach of do stay with us. cullimore reach seven thousand kilometers from moscow a group of research as has become an expedition through the nature of. there is one of the sea eagles enough close to a small river on the shore of the sea of a fourth here not very far from here low tide compels them to go to the sea to look for food. to stella siegel is listed in russia's red book

of endangered animals eagles of his toy found in russians for east each year just to come people reserve ranges in space for that and this in order to do so the expedition would have to come hundreds of us over the course of ten days. just you know we take is joined by l.z. ashford a volunteer from scotland they're accompanied by range of let me a big push on the journey. this is where the two rivers meet their totally different the children journey is a deep cold river with a strong current the water in the cabin is warm they even different color but still i'm sure is greenish because a flood waters of the kava always stays brown. still the sea eagles can afford to be free in the ski reserve they don't have to worry about food there

is not some fish in the sea of all hopes a nearby river has the stella sea eagle is the largest bird in the area. there is almost seventy centimeters as an adult to knowing kilograms i can feel a branch an eagle is behind it. the boat is going to a full corner of the result of the only just expect to see chicks that they be patched in an eagle's nest a few days ago. the engine noise. upon seeing the new arrivals he backs away and swiftly disappears into the forest the group has no worries has really attacked people during the summer. a telescopic route is the most important always home in the expeditions inventory by attaching a video camera the only phone which is we're used to see what's going on in the

eagle's nest even though it only takes a few minutes to get to the nest but it actually comes to climbing the tree preparations take a lot longer stella's sea eagles above the ground. are you sure giving a delicate girl that much to carry is a good idea. elsie ashford is the first woman to ever climb a tree in the market that is the result of in the past you have taken always employed to help the men in the group. yes. well see is a researcher at the royal society for the protection of in scotland but nests have been her line of work the several years she has brought when necessary equipment from scotland because she thinks using familiar equipment in an unfamiliar place is much safer. from the winding this tree is no easy job and it will take

elsie at least forty minutes to get to the nest especially if she observes all of the safety rules are going to move elsie's progress is blocked she can't go any further this is where a video camera attached to a road comes in handy connection a couple key element of a monitoring procedure is inspecting us at the start of the season with us because we need to know how many chips that hatched and how many have survived to the end of the season and then if they're mature enough to leave their nasty events the film is shot from different tables special care is taken not to scare away at all. otherwise they might never return to the nest and the chicks will die of starvation elsie takes a look at the footage before she's even got down from the tree place full of chips to a small white chicks car and i find. out things around in the sunshine fighting a battle with each other she thinks like this that's when you get in the next six

too small of a very healthy chick. decades ago they were good like prison camps and. inmates used to be sent what is now nature is to procure a fish and game today people are a rare sight here but to me of a gauche patrolled the territory making his way along never trails left. he always carries a gun with him. a trespasser can be easily spotted from this elevation intruders crossing the reserves boundaries as a threat. but she's lying close to the pole speak of a camp fire starter but welcome guests or this is what is left of a branch that got caught in a fire even though more than thirty years of past i still shudder when i think back to that inferno. this with this way of getting to any part of the reserve in an

emergency is by helicopter. when a fire flares up the helicopters will have to make dozens of trips a day but even that does little to help. the tiger may remain a blaze two weeks on end sometimes far as covers such a large area the thought i'm in from all over the market and region come to. controlling for is especially difficult in coniferous forests it takes many years to recover from such a place floods are just as dangerous as far into early spring transporting fuel and basic necessities it was star is next street and often life threatening toss. on one occasion snowmobiles broke down as we had to walk scores of kilometers such incidents would have made many others quit this job but something keeps us going i

think it gives us adrenaline i'm happy it's part of my life. it's a challenge that keeps you in good shape. the following morning the weather changes abruptly it is clear from the four cos that the rain will keep coming down for almost a week we all a fellow just decided against inspecting other siegal nests they want to waste that toy so they begin looking through the video they filmed the day before. i would like to take a closer look at what you filmed. i couldn't see it clearly in the sunlight. well i didn't expect to see that the chicks i saw were older and they behaved in a very different way. now this this is the first time i've seen chicks fighting all the time they're behaving naturally as they should it's not like they saw you with

your camera it was hidden after all. l.c.s. food began learning russian a few months before arriving in the macedon region well in the reserve each day she notes than you would she hears from her russian colleagues at work it's important if you're working that you don't learn q many every day because you can't remember the names of a few months you practice so you can use them when you need quickly. the day later and time is running out the expedition now has to move to another sector of the result. didn't miss the second phase of the expedition is about to begin on will visit the korean peninsula on the on ski islands where the maritime sector is will see eagle nests check the bears and tad sea lions for now this part of the trip is down.

three hundred kilometers from the previous campsite and talk back question is when expedition vessel has entered the sea of a whole. series several killer whales appeared near the ship they seem to be helped to push the ship's captain and many happy returns on his sixty fifth birthday get the boat ready for a large applause you check points on the horizon. the station on the coney peninsula is home to ranges of the maritime sector of the market and ski state nature reserve the environment is very harsh. accompanies the group of researches at this stage of the expedition with a service record of more than twenty years he is one of the reserves veterans surrogate began his career as a rank and file employee now he is in charge of the ranges guarding the reserves merits. they are on duty for about a month for the time the rangers are

a self-sufficient community. apart from guarding the territory they keep records of the natural environment was the situation no money nothing to speak of little said you know intruders apart from some little animals. and what about the stellar siegel's a couple who come from there during low tide will see them. no toy doesn't come until several hours later at that time a mountain stream flowing into the sea of a halt can be crossed normally the title current is so strong that it does and smells keep one's balance the water is all year round a falling in would be dangerous there are no signs of life in the eagles and this its owner is away comes in for food but soon it appears on the horizon. cooking evil. the climate here it was completely different to the previous location even in the height of summer the

weather poses a challenge it's a little bit cold. but it's not winter it's this summer so it's for me it's like. winter in scotland maybe. you can feel. the rain just take two dogs on a daily twelve kilometers patrol the dogs begin talking as soon as they smell a bag they are just as indispensable when rangers look for poachers something bad is often approaches have better equipment and the reserve personnel. well rules for the poachers carry weapons their boats have powerful engines in the work and on top of that lawyers provide legal protection which you're unlikely to find any eyewitnesses here a ranger would have to work very hard before the offender could be brought to trial

which he wants and. as soon as the expedition ship leaves plus he station a family of humpback whales appears the captains the is the best all along the shore of the research is take stock of the best inhabiting to coney peninsula what i can see a female mayor down there and a little compass nearby. when the bears are spoke to their exact location will be mocked on the map while the research is conduct their work ship moves the slow speed. but would evening the captain steps on the gas as they head for the ski islands it's crucial that the ship reached its destination while the weather is still good. the truth comes from our hero. we hear it

because our apache outs that. god promised them this land belongs to us. we'll if they are still going to be thinking. and gone chosen people will not believe that god is real stay cation say look at this that is this for you guys and this guy this is as for you. on the corner this is the one this is my rock that. some of your. son. twenty years ago in the largest country. to such a place it. was how did

he came. to teach began a journey. where to take the. four days of pulses the stuff of the expedition the m.c.r. lands a still a long way away but the expedition has already run out of fresh water rain just surrogates sets off looks for a spot to lie on the boat and see that there's the eagle. the sea is quite shallow off shore sergey raises the opel the engine and covers the last few meters using wars once he is on shore he realizes the trespassers visited the protected area only recently. well this water canister tells me they left the place only a short time ago. the bear came later with it's clear it's been a good deal of time here sharpening its claws i'm quite sure the guys wasted no time either. posing most likely. there are no people around but there

are fresh tracks on the ground left by a bear soon the animal is spotted trippin oculus but it pays no attention to the expedition a bit later the only foliage is see another stella's siegel a short distance away meanwhile the ranger returns from his rounds of the territory he says he has found no poachers. for some say the series here in the north is very monotonous but in fact it is very beautiful this is really dander in our springtime flower which is listed in russia's red book on endangered plants and animals and this one began to bloom just a few days ago. when the rising tide comes they will need to collect some two hundred liters of fresh water this supply should last until the end of the trip many of the expedition participants have been suffering from dehydration this is the only chance to replenish the water supply for as long as the ship remains at

sea. this water is absolutely fresh because it comes here from the snow fields the water is cold but it's pure completely clean and very good for drinking and it's smooth to. the water is now on board and the ships anchor is raised the weather is ideal for making observations half an hour later you know taken to an eagle's nest which is not on the map he will market his new the eagle seems to be alone and as it is very tiny. the weather rapidly deteriorates and the birds head to the rocks watching them becomes impossible moreover the fog makes sailing in these conditions dangerous so the ship comes to a halt. ranges of gets into a motorboat to have

a cape. mark off an old friend of his is in charge of a large house. so gay lives there with his wife the cape covers an area of just over one square kilometer. and you want to. keep or. not to hello there hello i haven't seen you in ages how are you. visitors are a rare sight here the nearest settlement is sixty kilometers from cape to yeah i made some pies fresh from the oven i'll make some tea if you wait a minute thank you my idea that there's no mystery takes care of the household chores. is responsible for maintaining the lighthouse he has to be a jack of all trades there is nobody to help if something goes wrong reasons and you know we are proud to live here even if it means living so far away.

we are like border guards. it's like living at the end of the world that's true there are rocks on one side and sea on the other there are no people around here you see nobody but beasts and even they are very tame. before dusk surrogate goes to the lighthouse there are more than two hundred time one steps in the spiral staircase. in the soviet union the lighthouse was a strategic naval installation and was guarded accordingly a sentry was on round the clock duty at the entrance. much has changed since then but the litel still requires daily maintenance specially designed lenses enable the light be seen from twelve more school miles away even though the power of the lamps is five hundred watts. i was a child when my parents brought me here in one thousand nine hundred sixty two. but when i took a fancy to this place when i grew up i brought my kids here they too have grown up

here as such i might call my family a dynasty of sorts. towards evening the ship to pass for the ski. the only follow this will meet with fellow scientists studying sea lions. you know. we're now approaching my to kill island the main destination of our trip the place is very beautiful and interesting here the sea is about one hundred meters deep schiff's our best to sear clear of this place during a storm or change inside there is no telling what tricks it may have in store for you. what. the pacific's northernmost habitats of sea lions is all meant to kill island in the late one nine hundred eighty s. scientists raise the alarm of discovering a dramatic form in the number of these memos. since then an international group of

scientists has come to the mc arlen's each year. to begin with all the adults he learns to shoot away from the beach then they record the pups so it's estimate the size of the population accurately the newborn's of intact and given the number. the procedure makes it possible to track the animals movements in the sea of a halt over roughly twenty years which is the average large span of a c lot of. course this would spark obviously the animals don't like being disturbed but then it's only ones a during their mating season to set a particular day aside when the harm done to the sea lion population is reduced to a minimum since the procedure has been perfected times the smallest detail starts vets administer an anaesthetic to the seal and pumps to ensure a painless operation for you because the sea lions breathe in

a special gas for about three minutes he falls asleep and wake sets in ten minutes later it doesn't take long to recover from the anaesthetic. few. chips wouldn't i am going to take some blood samples if basically some blood tests will tell us something about the state of the new born stealth to see if they're healthy enough that's all right dear they have them the job involves a good deal of physical labor and unfortunately the team is short handed this year . the expedition is grateful to the ash with the help of the tolls it is not easy a one week old sea lawyer weighs in the average of twenty seven kilograms space special to take so i think. that it's quite nice safe because. i think it's healthy just carrying. so i could be useful. getting what looked

like like. as biologists labeled the sea lion pups the adults in the water the scientists need to make haste to finish the job as soon as they can this year the expedition has brought together researches from japan russia and the united states they have to solve the language barrier as they can. really important for us to work us in an american colleagues in russian colleagues still or see lines don't look at the border and say oh stuff as america over there and russia over here they swim across the border quite frequently so we have to work in cooperation to better understand the nature that goes across the borders is doing whether they're doing well or not what we need to do to manage them. in early spring sealants come to the beach and much to kill island over the ice the males of the first two are roy they have to fight for a place on the beach. this ring sound means the sea lion has laid claim to the area

but i'm with you what it would have been working with such animals for more than twenty years but i'm still in the days of their behavior sea lions on shore behave very differently at sea. i can usually do what with me when they're on the beach they're agile like birds but at sea they get very inquisitive they approached divers in sync with them for some sign that they try to touch him especially if they're wearing shiny objects by sea lions attacking humans not no that has never happened before but the. the scientists have labeled two hundred sea law and pops each of the animals now has a stiffer recording their weight and individual characteristics he was. asked to it will be as humans were never here to sea lions will return to their daily routine lying around on the beach going to sea in search of food and they're seeing their pups. after the departure of their colleagues the following morning the only

foliage is of the maggot and the state nature reserve was you watching in the daytime these colonies of to kill island. but even people shouting at the top of the voices can hardly be fewer than four and a half million i think magical island even though it's only six square kilometers they are few and far between in the south because the wind is a strong cliffs it's the central part of the tracks most interest. there's a difference between nesting habits will look for example occupy narrow cliff cornices while buzzards make their nests among rocks this means that there are no free land and the birds occupy the entire island. just would like to spend more research. it is a very hard place to get to

a previous expedition into haiti. and have to return to market with no results this time but was on the side of the scientists everybody works together and it's not it's not difficult it's not like. historic sea voyage where you have no water no free and many health problems i see even more than i expected because i've been very lucky to be here at a time when there are many different interesting projects. the ship leaves messy keel island during low tide just the fourth us in the mess room elsie ashford learns how to cook traditional russian borscht. puts potatoes on the boil for ten minutes then added ten days to. the expedition members unknown the last night for the ship it is obvious that everyone is tired but everyone is reflecting on the

vivid impressions of the trip even those that have been here before the captain says jokingly that next time elsie ashford will combine both jobs as researcher and the cook meanwhile a captain's mate sets of course back to make it a humpback whale again appears on the horizon just like during the voyage to the mc islands the expedition to the megatons to nature reserve is nearing its end it has covered more than a thousand kilometers in ten days and collected a wealth of material for the study. the team's mission is complete.

all. me peace. to peace.
