this is how so-called canaries of the sea communicate. typically they hide under the ice. the white sea is then the time. i. saw from the civilized world in the north of russia on the coast of the white sea sea canaries are communicating with people with great pleasure in the open waters. could not take you in they are behaving strangely today. show you why you had a canary so why did you feel like giving us a song or something wrong with your firth's you wouldn't ask i didn't gargle before you start singing vs need. a water your best read on there is surely more.

than was a mortal let's give our throat some fish oil. now let's try to get off the. sailors have dubbed beluga whales canaries because of the peculiar sounds they make . my three want to bring us tearing. skin color distinguishes these marine mammals from their relatives i believe good carbs are of a dark blue color. when they are one year old they turn gray like these

two female whales. later their skin acquires a milky shade. you know yes this is exactly how they should be kept by the people and society should know that the bloke a whale is not a stupid fish as many believe the. need to tell him that these intelligent creatures are worthy of perspex a sniff not affectionate i think. this dolphinarium amulets to conditions of their natural habitat as much as possible he's nice reason here. in the come the luck should day of the white see specialists from the petersburg branch of the tryst told finance in cooperation with the optics circle dive center set up an open enclosure for baluga whales. the nearest settlement is the village of mill mccool but location on the coast of the

white sea. it was a stop just by local fisherman known as coast well as in the twentieth century. this place is very remote and difficult to reach only dirt roads in the cold sea found that. such things do not pull the divers visitors flock to from different countries around they dream of getting a close look appealing to whales and swimming with them in their natural habitats. before they're allowed to do so even experienced divers have to attend a special ice time in cool head about the. same company that organizes this trip. and then when they said they were doing this trip. i thought got to do it moving to russia. anyway so far north pacific place to visit specie for the top of photography disability does speak to people in south africa

about the watch either i don't know where it is of all it's a whole experience for me and i hear war i've been diving for the past eight nine years most seem topical or. most in southeast asia and. mediterranean away called a cold water but now. it's warm water compared to here. in order to get to the depths of the want to see winter divers first have to break through the frozen sea. the thickness of ice is about forty to fifty centimeters in the diving school. it is hard work so the divers take a short intervals. during the ordeal this device was invented by ancient people it's a type of leadership that was taken it a step further and designed intelligent devices no deals to lift chunks of ice

nothing of the kind anywhere else in the world this is original structure does the job of fully manned. i styling in the white sea is a serious challenge in winter the water is bitterly cold. several hotspots bonuses are situated near every water hole pier the divers change and comfort themselves after diving. according to international diving regulations should be certified by the professional association of diving instructors before venturing under the ice because divers must be wearing dry suits to make sure they don't freeze in the water the user is insolated by

a small film of air into the suit ok ok so you have to meet up first and then you have the guy sit which is all that it has feels to you feel that the next so in theory it's not supposed to allow if you were to if you have an inflatable you know post here and here say to keep it comfortable and you don't get squashed in the water with the pressure you put air into the suit keeps the nice and comfy and then if you're coming up close you have to get. things into town through here. a lot of preparation is needed before diving under the ice. it takes time to put on a dry suit as well as making thorough checks on the equipment before finally getting used to the cold water. divers always had under the ice tethered to a safety line which is controlled by a team member above take their over your head your rope if you're ok the first dive

is always made by an experienced instructor like the task is to learn to navigate under the ice to exchange signals with your partner correctly and to control the equipment cool. by styling is fraught with danger the visibility beneath is only twenty to twenty five meters if the breathing apparatus fails the diver will not be able to surface immediately because of the ice above. the diver has to be aware of where the exit is. even in winter time life goes on under the white sea ice. on the seabed near the bolshoi christofi island there are underwater gardens of kelp scattered about. cold water is the best environment for this seaweed.

fish move slowly through the cold war to the sea bass are used to the divers and often let them come up very close. there looks a menacing and they're not even afraid of bright light. the thread like tentacles of the sea anemones give the seabed a fluffy carpet. c.n.n. money's feed on plankton and other organic particles the given i take green here to the water of the white sea.

just. her being here for sure we had a mortar. it was true ari didn't want to come where. we only need ice cream that's going to be have a. little bit after that. thing where you. go. for quite a few people the underwater world is not the only attraction of the white sea it's smooth ice is an excellent environment to kite sledging founds. only going to fail

often visits this remote place in the past he would only dive under the ice with scuba gear now he prefers to ride over the top with a special sledge and a parachute good interest but almost what i like about kite sledging is that you have a choice of parachutes three metre parachute is good for strong winds up three and a six to seven metre parachute is the right size for milder winds this one is nine and a half meters there comes for any weather conditions or so all of them will kill you florida if you want give you pleasure. by much be a good. thing the wind is what i enjoy most of all i should hear it is like riding

a giant horse galloping up breakneck speed i am carried away by a feeling of exhilaration because i am fully aware of the infinite power of nature's forces well they could power as my yacht sledge and kite in no time i make mincemeat out of me. the weather on the white sea often changes abruptly but after a long struggle a leg is finally able to catch the wind. the

i palooka trainer alexander and biologist natalia are cut off from civilization. they live in the village of new monkey and work in the nearby arctic circle dive center. but well so are you ready. palooka whales of plays an important role in their lives this is where they first met and then got married.

let's go below go. to the belugas numa in montreal now were brought to the white sea dolphinarium when they were about one year old i alexandra natalia became the foster parents they tended fed and trained them. keeping in touch with palookas is not only that job but it is also a hobby and a way of relaxation. i. think. i. train in belugas means playing with them any hostility against them is totally ruled out. whales and dolphins have an acute sense of how

humans are disposed towards them they respond to friendly treatment. therefore a very many people come here they want to communicate with the belugas and touch them and to sing in you're sure what's most important is that this is not a circus of showing off the animals ability to carry balls in there to use when we have been pretty clear people simply communicate with a living creature as you will see just the old. palookas. gets attached to humans very quickly and if they communicate with them for a long time they learn the habits. of thinking with you know you look like you're sometimes their skin ages you and i have certain experience that you thought you but they have no hands to scratch the spot so they're like being scratched by the fight you're going to turn it over and offer their sides make a point of scratching and stroking all the if she spots but. we also matters there

stout bodies. they open their mouth but we don't allow everybody to touch their nice looking tongues. many people don't do it gently enough so we put them off we protect our charges. if. this is an offshore enclosure of the belugas even a natural environment in wintertime these palooka whales always flock to go where winds and currents create cracks and holes in the ice. there they can resurface to brief. large patches of open water close to the village of new never freeze over thanks. according to geological evidence the white sea appeared some twenty thousand years ago. the people who first settled in this northern land find

a hundred years ago book called coast to as. fishing and hunting with their means of subsistence. many of them drowned during hurricanes and storms. local still put up landmarks of the most dangerous sites they serve as a warning to others. along the shore of the white sea their villages founded hundreds of years ago by coast welders. the oldest one is jordan i already which means black river. it is first mentioned in historical scripts in fifteen eleven. the church stands above the village it was named after some trifle the protector of hunters and fishermen. according to local tradition this church had to look like a ship. sailed north along the white sea coast and reach the shores of spitzbergen island even the women made the longest sea trips. the

women went fishing in the se on rowing boats they caught fish many kilometers away from their homes and they went by these robots not by ships going to me you can still see women on such boats thorough in a particular way saddles men usually sit with their backs facing forward and negative at the local women sit facing each other like this. or that is. also their surname so the course of the trip to a fishing area takes a long time at the moment. in winter time far from. their own was several shots out of sea belonging to divers. they were located in front of the rocky shore of bio filter bank. the white seas under the influence of the tide its water level of the shore rises up and down twice a day. in the bay even in winter you can see

a change of ice level of the coastline. there are daily tides in the whites. there triggered by the moon's orbit around the earth you have the amplitude of high and low tides in the wide sea is about two majors both in summer and in winter while the ice i'm standing on will take six hours to rise to this level at that with your mouth up with listening to that six hours later anyone standing here will have no problem stepping out of the building of ice frozen to the rocks. and buy a field to bang a diver's learn how to work in pairs on their own so that they will be able to dive under the ice without an instructor. thank. some diver stand above the ice hole and control those who are underwater then they swap

places. after the first two dips divers understand clearly that their lives depend on those above the ice. when everything is working fine it's fine but are they funny the moment something goes wrong you have what they called narrowing of vision or you use the ability to terrific like which increases your breathing and this and creates a panic so it's like a circle you just create more and more panic very difficult to get out of that side . decides the obvious part of getting you back to the hold this is like an umbilical cord that keeps you calm. in the depths of the ice world the sense of danger is very relative. near the rocks piles of ice a formed. ice piles up of the white sea coast due to the ebb and flow. huge chunks of ice create corridors and labyrinths stretching over many meters and

. this is the underwater world bio filter bank. it is so cold because plankton lurking among the rocks an ice cleans the water and also gives it unique colors. divers called this place the ice kingdom. bus so you can fly to another planet. nobody can certainly not now ask the americans a visitor the moon's probes of landed on mars and venus but actually another planet is right here on earth it's a parallel world with a parallel dimension everything is different here i think people know much more about how the space than they do about what's under the seat of bush's vision sure but. there are hundreds of maritime biological research stations in the world

today one of the most remote ones is in the candle laps of gulf of the white see. an old wind powered generator is the symbol of the bottle tickle research station belonging to moscow state university. only a handful of staff stays at the station in winter young students from moscow state universities biological faculty are preparing their theses presentations. biologist yelena cross nova search of the station for twenty five years she often comes here with family in winter. she studies c i did doug's ensuring i stay here. i just spend nearly all of their life time on water and in the end. it is only during the brief reproduction period that they make nests on the shore. they always stick together on land as they do on the sea.

young female dogs with their own nest legs help the on the females to race their baby birds and sometimes several get together to form a kind of kindergarten where they grow their flesh things together share with me if they find a safe place with enough food for their ducklings raising them together is a convenient thing to do you want. the water in the white sea remains cold even in summer time but the odds of ducks are never affected by the cold water table when the waves the whole day. undercoat is the best biological heat and see later it doesn't lead to one thought in the old days where there were new modern synthetic materials around the fluff was used to make clothes for polar explorers and sleeping bags and it's indeed an excellent insulator. like seabirds beluga whales simply don't feel the cold the temperature of their

bodies always stays at ninety eight point six degrees fahrenheit thirty seven degrees celsius. the thick layer of hypodermic fat keeps the heat in well however it makes them look somewhat cumbersome. instinct compels palookas to save energy. very easy movements never exhibit aggression. after a brief course of ice diving almost all the divers go swimming with belugas in an open closure. for many it is a dream come true because nowhere else in the world can you communicate with beluga whales in their natural habitat. and nash as. our task is to provide a good dive that so that the whale school so we in the deep waters for a while can communicate with people and then come back to the surface we treat them

to fish if they fulfill the task correct am the is the syllable in the pride and. the whales are other words careful divers cannot move as fast graciously as they can so they adjust themselves to the divers movements. people always talk to the whales in their own language but beluga whales can barely hear human speech they perceive high frequency sounds. a huge forehead serves as an acoustic tool thanks to that palookas has perfect echo location. in communicating with human beings they can comprehend body language and facial features. but divers are always calm

feeling that the whales understand them perfectly and even answer back with their unusual speech. for that reason sailors nicknamed them sea canaries. because. people have to. be going to look at. the community. and.
