most beautiful one of the most peaceful predator on the planet the leopard is more accustomed to sub-saharan africa but has adapted very easily to the harshness of the russian winter they have been known to attack domestic animals which have never charged to humans just beginning for. 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 adjourning study is always an adventure. local divers rarely visit to the scenes of 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 during a dawn. and since they were being totally carried away by it all my thoughts my business and my free time revolved around underwater photography woman review from . the full any dive getting a team together is of utmost importance but the lives dictate that at least three divers a presence at any one time too will be underwater. to help the other in case of an emergency the third remains in the motor but half. of all of them want to do this job so much i've literally been counting down the

days you know as you know i was one of the first to go into the water. this year i've been diving three or four times a week. the same goes for last year or you this rate i'm going to start growing some kills the love of. peter the great day in the sea of japan most of the islands in the surrounding waters are protected areas dimitris chain on the wall to marvels his favorite diving spot is in far east moviemaker trees. a joke how deep is it here five meters. ok let's get going quickly. color and shape of flora and fauna on the shores of the bay of the result of

evolution in a harsh environment it is too cold for 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 portends a bountiful catch others think it signals an approaching storm but in reality they are useless and harmless 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. you know every zoe is unique in its own way and. when

you dive you see something in the water. but a couple of days later it might be totally different. that 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 them a trade it was a one off. divers can stay on the water between thirty minutes and an hour divers have to surface afterwards to have a rest and change their attics cool. there are some three hundred species of fish and peter the great they alone they're the subject of several research institutes five hundred metres of the bays in the coastline is also part of a far east marine nature reserve the hills in the thick forests of the territory of the kid the rover parts nature reserve it was established in the early twentieth

century after the region was subjected to deforestation the handsome inhabitants falling prey to poachers today many of the species are thought to be on the verge of extinction for example only forty far east and leopards remain here. so ok our amelia 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. 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 leopards ways 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 helped researchers identify leopards each animal caught on film is given a name that you need two of these cameras to get snapshots of a leopard that 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 trucks are lined up on both sides of the trail special care is taken to make sure they're at the same level above ground so gay knows of several instances of leopards taking a camera away therefore he uses steel wire to keep it in place. through here we are part of we are going to identify the liberty by most of the scars on its body. chris so what we are going to do is make sure that the cameras are placed at the

right level. if we were leopards on a trail we would realize that this twigs stands in our way. these unique shots were taken by the world wide fund for 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 fix a bushy tail and gray eyes distinguish the more leopard from other species the first infantry of these animals was taken in one nine hundred seventy 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 thought to be left they continue to survive somehow.

reserve staff regularly tours of the far east marine nature reserve one of them is valentino wysocki with every group she leads out of the list of strict rules tourists are supposed to follow. the directions i was in when i landed at cases navi i should remind you that this is a protected area it is strictly forbidden to take anything from this reserve or any other reserve for that matter that it is also you are not to pick up anything from the sea like this way tourists of the reserve have to take steep paths they are not supposed to leave the trail or c. d. tours but once they reach the top they are awarded with a spectacular sight these sculptures of the results of the wind and sea of roving the rocks over millions of years extraordinary trees have taken root here to fly

with what's it called and these japanese red pine is more commonly known as the grief psychiatry fighting again this is because it's also found in south korea where it's a symbol of mourning in such trees are planted in graves there are unlike other trees if it prefers to grow on rocky coasts in many cases the roots of such trees stick out of the shale. by 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 h. and the rain biologist is a frequent visitor to pale as island. poets hold it on hold of the new tires. his diving gear travels with

him wherever he goes but his work place is the sea floor twice a day he goes underwater to study the behavior of fish in the natural environment for years michael i have befriended some of the fish for a period of time and i have regular contact with them. because with some of them spawn here in mid september. sometimes a female fish sticks around here for several days. by truck or movements to see where she's bombs in the city sheriff. 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 apart the sea floor. alexander will be there for as long as the oxygen in his tanks lasts. i work with marine life in its own environment with i have to write 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 them. so i have to put the bits and bobs of the mosaic together to try and form a complete picture. of

the three hundred fish species in the primeau ski region some one hundred inhabit the southern sea and summer they migrate to the north like birds to waiting for them is a wealth of food and spawning grounds and winter rain life in the peter the great day is less active about one third and remember head south. the close up jane has been to the region where technological breakthroughs save human lives. now are she goes to the sea.

where unusual ways to protect nature are. where farming pioneers place local cuisine to the highest pitch. and where future developments depend on the way. russia's black sea coast should close up on our she. gave. to the. eagle cotton is

a ranger at the far east marine nature reserve he is famous for his knowledge of common seals since he began studying them in nine hundred ninety six the ego has defended a thesis and written many scientific papers on the subject he spends nearly all his time on ellis island. we're on the lookout for possible intruders along the reserves perimeter of. the closest seal nursery can be clearly seen from here will it's possible to monitor the twenty four hour movement of incoming and outgoing seals. the primeau ski region is the sails of the most have it 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 a breeding a common seals of peta the great they never make with seals from other regions because cotton made this discovery after monitoring the colonies for an entire year

. now we're going to see what's happening on the kin tavor islands. all three of them . does where we find a seal nursery with all the mothers and seal pups. as long as there are no storm speakers cuts and has 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 poetry for genetic analysis when the mammals return he stays in the hideout taking pictures and filming from afar. they can see me if i watch them from here so they will act in their normal none are

communicating and grazing them for. what i figure there are at least two hundred seals here. this is some of eager cottons footage of a new born seal another discovery made by captain is that the common sales of the most q. region freedomland all other seal 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 under a running cliffs of beisel several hundred eighty seals all of once it was purely by chance even though i had intended on seeing such a thing anyway. little formal creation we should behave as if whisky whips of the size of these animals usually. definitely don't look when they are if we can help it. if we look at the mole we should just feel. blocks of akaka.

if a seal comes close to you just relax to keep still and i'll take pictures of you verse full face and her face when you look. for. dimitri who this 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. filming them can be a difficult task sometimes they approach divers to bite on their flippers 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 who know you know i mean that's reason enough to get out of it yet. common sales have almost no animals in the wild the islands of peter the great day earn habited by thousands of . seal hunting in the reserve is banned and even then scientists are anxious about the future of the population. they are so susceptible to any external influence that it is almost impossible to protect them for example if an oil tanker capsizes here right now we will clean the shores up but if this happens in february all the newborn seals will die obviously it is much easier to preserve the leverage as a species. because. alex a customer 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 nine hundred ninety four such snares have been set up once every three or four years a look at the cats court 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 and arranged in such way as to deceive the cautious animal into stepping on the snare. the fourth book of 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 calf in such a way that a leopard stepping over it with one paw gets the other cotton snare. withhold. the traps a leopard is shocked with a tranquilizer dart. once asleep the scientists take skin samples draw blood and collect bits of further tests. and measure its blood pressure pulse and carry out an ultrasound test before the leopard wakes up and they also put a g.p.s. color around its neck it will track its movements send real time data via satellite . with an 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 that would move with. that 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 for the male as well advanced in years he has earned respect of his peers he has allowed the pick of the ladies for her part of the female seems to have taken quite

a liking to the male of. the natural environment for more ski region constantly surprises its explorers familiar and well documented animals act completely differently here local plans to not resemble their counterparts elsewhere guides always make a point of stressing the fact as they take tourists around it was a. 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 appearance but strong winds have changed the shape of the leaves and formalised 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 is one of the stops on the toll this one is this is a fifteen kilometer speed of sand links at least ten hector area to the mainland. but when their harvest season downpours salty sea water floods it and this is so called from silent actually ans out as one. of. the marine reserve 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. that 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 at the same time with the with the stuff with the material for other people or try and show them a whole new worlds of. trying to open their eyes about going. nobody but a diver can witness a battle between crabs and their. says. only a diver can appreciate the diversity of stuff ish and make friends with an octopus . a really productive beautiful dive with some amazing impressions is a real success i'm so happy with the results you get. the sea of japan is prone to an enormous range of fish tales to me to me or just hopes that in the distant future he will be able to say that he has visited every single

magoon on every island key to 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. wealth to. science technology innovation all the least of melons from around russia we've got the future covered.
