the peace of the great day in the sea of japan is famous among divers around the world even veteran divers are amazed by some of its inhabitants but diving is a journey so he is always an adventure. local divers rarely visit to the seas the waters close to home the fall more diverse harvest so much interest than lifetimes can be spent exploring. for dmitri who just diving is more than a hobby it is his livelihood his video camera hardly ever leaves his side he scrutinizes it before a plunge even a few drops of salty sea water leaking into the protective housing could ruin the film. this holy ghost writes my first experience with a video camera touring at dawn if. i'm since there have been totally carried away

by it all my thoughts my business i'm afraid saw him revolve around underwater photography one woman with. the full anytime i guess in a team together is of utmost importance the lives dictate that at least three divers are present at any one time to be underwater. to help the other in case of an emergency the third remains in a motorbike half. ball i've been wanting to do this don't have so much i've literally been counting down the days of the hour i was one of the first to go into the water. this year i've been going through four times a week. the same goes for last year. for you this right i'm going to start growing some kills.

these are the great day in the sea of japan most of the islands in the surrounding waters are protected areas dimitris keep an eye on the wall to models his favorite diving spot is in the far east moviemaker trees are. a joke how deep is it here at five meters. ok let's get going quickly. color and shape of flora and fauna on the shores of the bay are the result of evolution in a hushed environment it is too cold for the natives of the southern seas but too hot for the plankton and fish coming from the north.

quite a few local animals have an unusual appearance to such as this alligator fish host of myths of sprung up around it fishermen believe that they have mystical powers some believe an encounter with them for tens of pounds a full catch others think it signals an approaching storm but in reality they are useless and homeless creatures as far as humans are concerned they're no good as food and only feed on tiny crayfish and other invertebrates they locate them with the help of a long snout. every zone it is unique in its own way. but when you dive you see something in the water. but a couple of days later it might be totally different. in this way you learn something new every time you discover something you didn't know anything about. scientists at the far east marine nature reserve were not aware of its existence

they asked him to show it to them if he ever saw it again unfortunately for dimitri it was a one off. divers can stay on the water between thirty minutes and then our divers have to surface afterwards to have a rest and change their attics cool. there are some three hundred species of fish in peter the great day alone they're the subject of several research institutes five hundred metres of bays in the coastline is also part of the far east marine nature reserve the hills and thick forests are the territory of the kid the rover parts nature reserve it was established in the early twentieth century after the region was subjected to de forest station of the handsome inhabitants falling prey to purchase today many of the species are thought to be on the verge of extinction for example only forty far eastern leopards remain here. so jr

a meal of works for the worldwide fund for nature each spring and summer he sets up so-called camera traps on trails where leopards look for prey this practice dates back to two thousand and two but if you want to catch them in the act you need to get inside the mind of a leopard you need to imagine that you are the predator and then you will know the leopard weights you will know that he will choose mountain ridges and ranges to have a good view of everything around him in such a position he can sniff out his prey from the breeze that comes over the slopes then he will go about planning his attack. the first camera traps were equipped with regular film now digital cameras are used to capture footage every leopard has a unique pattern of spots the markings help researches identify leopards each animal caught on film is given a name and if you need two of these cameras to get snapshots of

a leopard there is because the spots on one side differ from those on the other and consequently you need to make sure that the leopard is in full view from every angle. two camera traps are lined up on both sides of the trail special care is taken to make sure they are the same level of of ground so they know there are several instances of leopards taking a camera away therefore he uses steel wire that can put in place. from here we are we're going to identify the leopard by most of the spots on its body. so what we're going to do is make sure that the cameras are placed at the right level i mean. if we were leopards on a trail we would realize that this tweak stands in our way when we fly these unique shots were taken by the world wide fund the nature before camera traps were installed emigrated from their african homeland thousands of years ago since then

they have learned to live in snow and become a species in their own right i think for a bushy tail and gray eyes distinguish they are more leopard from other species the first inventory of these animals was taken in one thousand nine hundred and two there were some forty individuals at the time since then the situation has not improved more than fifty leopards are thought to be necessary for the survival of the species but with only forty four to be left they continue to survive somehow. reserve staff record in the halls of the far east marine nature reserve one of the mr allen tino wysocki with every group she leads out of the a list of strict rules tourists are supposed to follow. the

directions i was in when i landed it kicks us nobly i should remind you that this is a pretty accidental year it is strictly forbidden to take anything from this reserve or any other reserve for that matter that's a good thing also you are not to pick up anything from the sea life this way tourists of the reserve have to take street paths they are not supposed to leave the trail or seek detours but once they reach the top they are awarded with a spectacular sight these sculptures of the results of the wind and sea eroding the rocks over millions of years extraordinary trees have taken root here to the crime with of course these japanese red wine is more commonly known as the gravesite time getting again this is because it's also found in south korea where it's a symbol of mourning in the death of such trees are planted in graves there. unlike other trees if it prefers to grow on rocky coasts in many cases the roots of such

trees stick out of the shale. well showing pellets island ranger igor cotton stays here in the far east marine nature reserve a small outpost for months on end. the bay near his makeshift home is an ideal place for monitoring fish. alexander marquis of each and the rain biologist is a frequent visitor to pale as islands. hold it hold it on hold of the new tires in. his diving gear travels with him wherever he goes but his work place is the sea floor twice a day he goes underwater just a little behavior of fish in the natural environment for years. my help a friend and some of the fish a quarter of kind i have regular contact with them. because

some of them spawn here in mid september. sometimes a female fish sticks around here for several days ahead of my truck or movements to see where she's gone second the kitty shares again. alexander needs to locate and catch several fish species to carry out d.n.a. tests the results are incorporated in a single database under an international program. during his first dive he has enough time to catch the fish he needs for analysis for the second he will do nothing but watch as he keeps still half a metre above the sea floor. alexander will be there for as long as the oxygen in his tanks last. thing here. i work with

marine life in its own environment with i have direct contact with it much in the same way as the ologists on land to a few. years of the trouble though is that i can only stay underwater for short while. this exposes me to only a few fragments of the world underwater. other aspects elude me unless i spend years studying will. so i have to put a bit some bulbs of the mosaic together to try and form a complete picture. king. me. of the three hundred fish species in the primeau ski region some one hundred and have it the seven seas and summer they migrate to the north like birds do waiting for them is a wealth of food and spawning grounds in winter the rain life in the peter the

great bay is less active about one third in reading novels had self. culture is the same as the taxpayers money from a device is never real craziness the hero of crisis without end heroes of leaders and national governments continue to be at loggerheads on how to rescue a currency. a very warm welcome to you this is your news today protesters on wall street think they have to. leave essential. because he said to get with the status of the human experiment if. you approach

this in this right here's what it goes it was really trying to make sense of the economy and its arcane things as financial template the reason to maintain our confidence in markets in taking on. these things way to balance is recession look to be the nation's close to collapsing of supplying loan for close. to failed aaa banks again feel a little like these u.s. crash eminent. killing teams is it taking place in athens free for the i.m.f. the spokesman just programs increase the term economists. eager caton as a ranger at the far east marine nature reserve he is famous for his knowledge of common seals since he began studying them in one nine hundred ninety six eagle has defended a thesis and written many scientific papers on the subject he spends nearly all his

time on tellus island. we're on the lookout for possible intruders along the reserves perimeter of. the closest seal nursery can be clearly seen from here wolf is possible to monitor the twenty four hour movements of incoming and outgoing seals. but for most the reason is the sales southern most habit scientists don't yet know how these arctic seals cope with the summer heat most of them had to other cities for feeding but they always return here the breed in the common seals of peta the great they never make with seals from other regions equal cuts and made this discovery after monitoring the colonies for an entire year.

now we're going to see what's happening on the container islands. all three of them . those where we find a seal nursery with all the mothers and seal pups. as long as there are no stores you speak of cotton heads to the nearby islands almost every day. when there are no seals on the beach he connects tufts of the fur and sends them to the border tree for genetic analysis when the mammals return he stays in the hideout taking pictures and filming from afar. they can't see me if i watch them from here so they will act in their normal manner of communicating and bathing for food is more of what i figure there are at least two hundred seals here through a cooler with. this is some of the eager captains footage of

a new born seal another discovery made by captain is that the common seals of the commo ski region freedomland all other seals species breed on ice floes in the open sea winter research us have spent years flying around over ice flows seeking out the local colonies as it turned out common seals give birth to their pups and secluded noakes of the of the hunting cliffs i saw several hundred baby seals of all at once it was purely by chance even though i had intended on seeing such a thing anyway. it shouldn't be meeting we should behave as if we're scared out of our wits a decisive these animals will. definitely they're liberal and they are if we can help it. if we live in the middle we should just steal. glocks. if a seal comes close to you just relax and keep still and i'll take pictures of you verse

full face and her face you want you. to meet me who is a diver an amateur cameraman he often goes to the cliffs and islands inhabited by common seals they are highly organized and capricious animals. phoning them can be a difficult task sometimes they approach divers to bite on netflix has more often than not they play hide and seek with the seals tease the divers darting away before picture can be taken. when you look into their eyes you can see how gentle and straightforward they really are. just like children. i mean that's reason enough to get out of a. common sales have

almost no enemies in the wilds the islands of peter the great they are and how to buy thousands of them seal hunting in the reserve is banned and even then scientists are anxious about the future of the population. most because they are so susceptible to any external influence that it is almost impossible to protect them a career for example if an oil tanker capsizes here right now we would think the shores up but if this happens in february all the newborn seals will die obviously it is much easier to preserve the leopard as a species. alexei cust urea is a biologist he is one of the few people to have an official license to catch leopards . alexei's job is to set up special snares and measure leopard tracks to determine the direction of their movements he hopes that several of the predators will end up

in his traps in the autumn. we set up no more than twenty snares on two or three trails there is no point in placing more than that because we simply do not have the time. since one thousand nine hundred four such snares have been set up once every three or four years a leopard that gets caught is inspected and then set free this process is part of an international program for the protection of rare animals the loop is disguised with twigs around it arranged in such a way as to deceive the cautious animal into stepping on the snare. for the fourth feline will always step over anything lying in its path it won't even step on such a fin little stick so i'm going to put a small block of wood across the path in such a way that a leopard stepping over it with one paw gets the other caught in the snare. with a wolf.

the traps a leopard is shocked with a tranquilizer dart. once asleep scientists take skin samples draw blood and collect bits of further tests. then measure its blood pressure pulse and carry out an ultrasound test before the leopard wakes up they also put a g.p.s. color around its neck it will track its movements send real time data via satellite . after fixing a collar around its neck we release the animal back into the wild. this tells environmental organizations how much territory these animals will need for their protection. also the color will let us track the animals whereabouts and how they use their habitat. and this way we will know which places are more important than

others. with. ten years of using camera traps have produced a wealth of archive footage scientists are quite familiar with a leopard named stamped he has been caught on film on several occasions. another this clip shows two leopards the unique thing about this video is that the male is in front of the female apparently paying no attention to her the female is trailing behind she seems to be flirting with the male something that's not typical of predators of the male as well advanced in years he has earned the respect of his peers he has allowed the pick of the ladies for her part the female seems to have taken quite a liking to the male of. the natural environment of the primeau sea region constantly surprises its explorers familiar and well documented animals act

completely differently here local plants to not resemble the counterparts elsewhere guides always make a point of stressing the fact as they take tourists around the reserve. yes we do here we see a very old ash tree it's probably about eighty years old it looks quite young because of its many trunks and stocky ferentz strong winds have changed the shape of the leaves formalised up according to one theory there was a tropical climate here until the last ice age the ice compelled many species of animals and plants to move here from the north as a result local plants and animals adapted to the new living conditions by changing their appearance climactic conditions changed even the pattern of the coastline the so-called false island as one of the stops on the top is the one is a fifteen kilometers speed of sound links at least ten hector area to the mainland . but when there have

a season down force salty sea water floods it and this is so cold from silent actually ans up as one. was. in the rain was was established in one nine hundred seventy two since then the underwater world of the day has become much richer and more diverse divers see it with their own eyes. vision. i think happiness is when you're able to do something that you really love you know and of course well it has a purpose of the same time with a bit of wisdom but it was so much serial for other people to try and show them a whole new worlds of. trying to open their eyes about diving.

nobody was a diver can witness a battle between crabs and their. there's. only a diver can appreciate the diversity of stuff fish and make friends with an octopus . and if you get a really productive useful dive with some amazing impressions as a real success i'm so happy with the results of. the sea of japan is home to an enormous range of fish comes to me to me or just hopes that in the distant future he will be able to say that he has visited every single macoun on every island and peter the great day but it may take him more than one lifetime as he has barely seen a fraction of the wealth this land has to offer. the

close up team has been to the region where exactly logical breakthroughs save human lives. now archie goes to the sea. where unusual ways to protect a niche are. where farming pioneers place local cuisine to the highest pitch. and where future developments depend on the way. russia's black sea coast russia flows up on our city.
