the direction, but again, you probably don't wanna watch it because it might just change the way and say look forward to talking to you all. that technology should work for people. a robot must obey the orders given by human beings accept. we're such orders at conflict with the 1st law show alignment of the patient. we should be very careful about visual intelligence at the point, obviously is to create a trust rather than to the various jobs with artificial intelligence. we have somebody with him in the robot most protects his phone existence with alexis, the
1:31 pm
as cities grow and land has developed, a problem is presented. how do we protect our nature and the unique animals that lived here? this is the caucuses nature reserve where they are cultivating an innovative program to re release the leopards into the wild. i'm shown thomas, this is united visions, and today we're on the mountains of cross i probably of the caucuses nature reserve is one of the kind with it's a huge territory and diverse and wildlife citizenship a lot. is the director here. he has spent his life in the force of the reserves. it's his likes work and he's with us today to show us what it's all about there. yeah, thank you for meeting out here. it's going to be interesting to learn what you do. so 1st, let's start off, tell me you've been doing this job for a long time as
1:32 pm
a park ranger. tell me how you got into this job and what exactly do you do? of the cancellation, this was for 40 years and i've been in the mountains since i 1016 i've worked in tourism taking taurus through the nature reserve, the specialize the mountain tourism. yeah, i climbed onto over city of i'm all about the mountains. it's my words as far as the range of them for years and i studied while i became a forest engineer. so i've been through one level, it's up to the director for so which itself, what's interesting is that on the 21st direct a 9 to 9 years. and i've been in this position for 20 years with my previous as to what 15 years. so the, every student to be on the 19th direct is the full that was 2 or 3 is already a bunch of work here is very difficult because the territory that is really big the size. but it right now, we're number one in the country in terms of visitors, but we don't that tories go deep inside the resent with you, but we did is create recreational facilities around the perimeter based by 6100000
1:33 pm
people visited the nature of the end of last year, around the perimeter, japan and know that 400000 spent time near the result. just so practically, no damage was done. now you tell me a little bit about the dangers of your job, and if you have any source to share. no in 2017, we mounted 100 years of the nature reserve system within those 100 years since the system was created. 103 major is this, have been created to do more than 57 people have died across the whole country. about 16 of them in the corpse is nature's. that's 30 percent. plus that has a very big number of these people were killed by poachers or drowned string crossings. us go to potentially full weight on duty for 16 people and that's a lot of so i can send a white dangerous spell out if federally mess up when i became direct to it. and there was a lot of poaching, mostly outside the nature reserve limit. so that was actually sees very few guns in the result, is mainly working around the perimeter that you have. how can i move people down to engage an antique page and campaigns that zip code decided to tell you there's no
1:34 pm
poaching in the nature is a about a month now. they only pages a torres to catch a snake by micro baker read list plants, catch a category like a whole, some wag tile, but then you have that small side poaching. what's pretty easy if you take your news away from the forest on the west coast damaged with working just on that. now, this place is really big. about 280000 hector's. how do you protect such a vast area from people and from whom are you protecting the area? i've seen more play through 16 range of stations around the perimeter of the natures of i be the whole lives that will be around $3.00 to $4.00 families at one location. because especially at home in the mountains. the natures that i misplaced into ranges with what we have $48.00 ranges, is supervised by $48.00 range general, each of them responsible for one area, and you told me so in general, to think about control and protection, you have good communication safety, but there are no roads in the nature reserve of them you can't get in here by congress. bo county high court, take a holes. i'm also, although it's not easy to protect and what he does have its advantages. that's okay
1:35 pm
. i understand that there's a place a little bit higher that you want to take us to the go. let's go to the outline, mentors. now. the now we know don't far from us right now. there's a beer, as you pointed out, what other kind of interesting animals are here in the reserve. those that make of the which there's huge animal diversity, him the european bison debt to sham law, jackal baskerville, folks, wild boar. and so i want to go to the next year with mocking the 100 percent of us . 3 of the cokes is nature assessment. assisted with was created specifically to preserve the population of the european vice. and also the 1st one was course in the courses in 1856, that's a pretty handle, wasn't known back then. so they took it to the st. petersburg academy of sciences. the way it was double don't by this word means why some in translation,
1:36 pm
but could each kick off and last by some responses in the coax is a 1927. all those lights in 1976. the fuel blended european by so nickname, comcast is what was found in germany. i'm return to russia, but for that, but they wouldn't know female animals because so 9 female bison were taken from a nature reserve in ukraine to create to population here. what could appreciate but that's good, especially today we have 1200 european bystanders. so we managed to present this species. eco tourism is becoming more and more popular here with crowds of tourists heading into the reserve, which started which season. but how do you make sure everyone's safe? how do you keep people from encroaching into the territories that are supposed to be home to some of the world rare suspicions? olga pick of us is the deputy director of the congress is nature reserve. she's with us today to provide some perspective. olga hello. hello.
1:37 pm
thank you for meeting me out here to help us understand this beautiful place. can animals and humans actually co exist or will humans always be a threat? is there a way to strike a balance? i though it's unfortunately one pro a that's a very complicated question because animals are always put under stress and the presence of humans that i mean troy. we seem to nature reserve that people don't know how to interact with wild animals as people are either very afraid of them or become aggressive. or we see in local settlements that people pay little attention to their garbage, attracting wild animals to me. and he bought this change is the animal's behavior, and they become more aggressive. he does the thing, they don't behave like they would in the wild system, someone because the 1st question tourist ask when they come to the nature reserve is if we have bears. here i was and we say yes, we do it over and they ask, and what should we do? because we want to hike along this route and you have bears all around that. and we keep explaining to people that wild animals are normal and healthy to go and if
1:38 pm
their habitats and behavior are not influenced by humans, i try. they will never attack a torres, a person who is just walking by the door. this, there is animals in the mountains are probably humans themselves because they don't know how to behave properly. we're only starting to develop eco tourism, helping people learn more about nature and how to preserve it. now new to reserves like this needs space and it seems to me that there's always going to be people building and infringing on that space. for example, hotels interest areas. is that a problem and how do you combat that? that this trust company, it has become a problem because hotels and resorts have advanced practically up to the reserves boundaries. and i remember the biggest issue is that we don't have the opportunity to educate torres and is to make sure that they know there's a nature reserve nearby that they should and play loud music or leave garbage and tell them to only walk along the trails in certain areas, we simply can't manage it. there's a lot of people and the resorts don't adequately inform their guess about their
1:39 pm
surroundings. and of course this impacts on the animals that causing them to move deeper into the nature reserve. if i, if this continues to nature reserve will wind up being like an island dress and then the chance of preserving wild life here for another 100 or 200 years will be diminished in one sort. but also now our director and colleagues are saying that it's important to create green core doors between nature reserves to leave space that's not occupied by people, roads, or resorts. so that animals can move freely and these different species cross paths that's going to in the very, in google kind of an extreme answer. is it possible just to lock the area off and keep people out completely? uh, we're in the fifties and sixties. and even when nature reserves were just being set up at the beginning of the previous centuries, there was the idea of turning them into sanctuaries, of so close off the area, prevent people from coming in and you go stick to science and preserve the animals
1:40 pm
or it's enough, but it didn't stand up to criticism because when people don't know what's happening on a certain territory, they become hostile towards. and so that henders preserving everything sides we've opened to less than 3 percent of our territory to visitors. that's almost 400 kilometers of trails that people can hike on board and they have the opportunity to see all the climatic zones. look at the mountains forest, the highest points and the glaciers keep when people see the alpine meadows in bloom because the color is changing. every 2 weeks, they are inspired by this. they begin to love this and become our assistance in preserving nature. but if we lock off, if we're going to lose these people here. so here, finding this balance is very important for you mentioned that there are different routes that towards can take, but tourist and people in general can let's say be a little bit stupid. sometimes they try and go around to the past and find their own ways. um, are you finding yourself in the position to have to go and rescue these tourists
1:41 pm
sometime today and that we're good? yeah, sometimes we save these torres because most of the tragic or dramatic situations and the nature reserve occur when people leave the trails. don't follow the rules, i'd say, well, we shouldn't have a thought, but thankfully, in the last few years, there have been few extreme situations and thought we generally manage to find people and have a talk with them for the i believe people aren't stupid or intend to violate the rules for the main reason. this usually happens is because they don't know why they can't do certain things so that they would when you explain it, they are motivated not to do this anymore. but that was the price. you mentioned that people don't have the proper or not. they don't always have the proper information. i've heard you wants to talk about the story of the bear coming into a tent because the bear one of the chocolate bar and the people didn't know to keep their food separate. so you have any other stories like that die of i the we had the story repeat 2 years ago last year and there are several places in the nature
1:42 pm
reserve that are very popular with torres. and so i really think you could, these are also places where bears traditionally live and very young bears that aren't as smart as the older ones. and they don't know, it's not a good idea to approach people and like teenagers, they're curious why these bears come to tours camping spots and naturally are attracted to the smell of food. we inform torres that they need to store food away from where they sleep and we're paying them on a tree or put them in some kind of close space at the camping site. if there is one step. but incidents still happened. one happened 2 years ago when a girl had 2 chocolate bars in her backpack, and a young there came in the course. she only took the backpack she carried it off. we found it not far from the camp site, so that these things happen. but it's not the very small know of persian leopards of once a room does this area until a human skin saved from the brink of extinction. the persian leopard is now slowly
1:43 pm
but steadily returning to the place. it is a rightful home. so there are only about a 1000 persian leopards left in the world. how many of them are here in this reserve? then were there by new law. sorry my pleasure. the left side was spotted here in the wild was even 1984. and then after that they disappeared with a busy i screwed up into the house and i just left a reintroduction program was launched in with be sure today we have only 3 left. whats in the nature reserve for but what the main problem we have visit the leopard step, stay here with the lead the reserves boundaries at the bow as a lot of snow, had the lipids and not back go to hunting big prey and website. they moved to places inhabited by records and so jackals badges and small rodents, but no, and that's what they monitor them using won't life camera track, which they will provide no way a shuttle to release the female liquid into the wall. and i'm going to say we decided to put her outside the reserves were a 3 males method. so ready list. it seems to me, it's all about the balance. and what i mean is there was
1:44 pm
a time when the leopards were not in this region and re introducing them to the region is also kind of changing the way is the nature works. is this an intrusion into nature as well? or are you worried about that type of intrusion issue at this point? i don't think it's an intrusion to below wind up with there is a very high density of animal populations here. so 30 and we have 1800 depth of 2000 says and 1300 sure and well, a number of places and shows and where we wouldn't disrupt the animal planet and separate. but without the size, the rapids now live outside the nature is that it is, as i said, mainly feeding on small rodents. so how does the process work when you reintroduce a leopard or any animal back into the wild? how do you know where to let them go? how do you know if they're ready to be released? that's interesting to me know, and those go comes little fishes. we have a scientific division at the nature reserve team including 7, ph. d 's and 2 professors. and when we have
1:45 pm
a breeding station located in the saw the national box before the animals that kept getting close at all possible and then lives there for 2 years while we train them for the wild as if it were up to 2 years, they released into the nature is, uh, we chose the best suited places for that, that of course, with areas with levels and i would high animal density is that by the last time we released the left, it's right in the center of the nature as of the other way. so you have, we've changed our plan, the following recommendations for most signs division. so we do, we keep monitoring the price. i sold it around and it's a spattering monitoring missions every moment they using camera trips to small places with more animals live with. so they see it, we're going to release the lipids outside the reserves, the one of the most impressive programs here in the nature reserve, the introduction of the person leopard. and hopefully we'll get to meet some of your residents nickel. i'm running because of the head of the center, and he will show us around nikolai,
1:46 pm
thanks for giving us the opportunity to come here to your office and experience this leopard firsthand. um, everyone in the entire world is looking at this a specific reserve and what you're doing here. what makes your program so unique when, regardless price because it protects a phone store. what makes all products you unique is that no one else has been able to make as much progress in ring for inducing logic privatized into their natural habitat. so what's the new, what they're actually able to have been some attempts, tories told the population of lines enough, forgotten about the problem was that those lines, once they were reintroduced into the wild wood, usually died was kind of what to make. i probably, well think it might be on the other hand, have been able to breed new laptops from adult wild animals and all center will cheat. but then we raise them in a way to make them prepare to some volume out in the wild on the road. and just just in a sitting here, we released almost as duration of that pause in 2016 years and they have been able to survive on the round of a saints and it was bears. one kid shipment is that they avoid meeting people down
1:47 pm
there. and despite the fact that the call cause is densely populated, which and seem all that pause, do not come to households to prey on domesticated. i am. i was wondering if i could have glued instead full, they hunt into the wild videos like that. even though it gets really hard in winter when snow can be up to one me to think and instead of being on the less the steel capable of adapting. and that's a very important component of the survival in the wild sherry. where do i have to me? it seems to me that it takes a lot of area to be able to do what you do. can you give me an idea of the, the size of this place to scope at the found like level of a process? that's actually the most important question. as all boss who's to say the most important thing, you know, walk is infrastructure and what is without it, we won't be able to prepare the animals effectively for survival in the wild yet. and those are encountered tree is currently being 12 heck to us. and we have a number of sectors dedicated to different functions such as we have headquarters and then that way we can control all the processes remotely, you know,
1:48 pm
and that from, from those. as you can see, all animals sectors are equipped with the video cameras. and we can remotely do things like those can the gauge for the lab us to goes through. i'll fade them and also remotely, with accumulated enough experience to be able to control them hunting lodge hoof dynamos remotely. by the quarter of a minute, discount, we have hunting sectors, but at this in west point. sure. we do. webs of everything by surveillance cameras if legit and make adjustments whenever necessary and the training program for each individual the pod. if i may ask, where do your leopards come from at the border? fortunately, this is another very important issue is coach. it's actually one of the key things because you know, the to phone when you population in the wild. hopefully we need to release specimens. i'm with different genetic background, successor crowds. and so one important thing we do here is try to obtain as many new mothers what is news? but on, despite the fact that some of the parent time than most all from sous the baby lab thoughts have all the necessary instincts for survival in the wild look. and our
1:49 pm
job here is to help them develop those instincts. it's close to the nice thing with, that's the main job here at this center. we still artificially stimulate natural instincts. fairly soon, we are not inventing anything new here we simply create conditions to put these products has to be able to follow the instincts and succeed, took care of food. and now the animals that come from the zoo parks the zoos themselves, they can't be released into the wild. can they? because they're already spoiled for that kind of life. absolutely. yeah, yeah. you're absolutely wrong. we had a case one to pump the feeling problems donated as a young let part of the 2 years old. and they said that it had been kept separately and had no contact with people whatsoever. anyone, i'm so presumably it was wild, i would, we had our doubts about it and ran a series of tests here to see how it would behave as many bucks. and we found out that the animal wasn't able to hunt, wasn't afraid of people, and couldn't interact with all the lat punch on the best we spent
1:50 pm
a year training. hammonds for that one up soon as you finally started hunting and realize he's a lad. no, the human then you'll know what you started mocking terry crease crouching, rubbing urinating. but we seem to have trouble getting him to avoid people consistently point oh, strongly every now and then he would start showing interest in humans trying to approach as much as before. he leaves the animals into the wild. we're run a series of very demanding tests. and when we tested him for human interaction, that's one way i act as a group of taurus approach in the lab pod area. but that subject lab got excited that it came out to interact and she was like, oh, finally news. there are some funds people in bright clothes. it could help those main people in cream uniform. so he failed the task because an animal like this and the wild, you know, the treatment of the conflict and we decided to keep him for breeding. was found human might come here. but if we're expecting the couple to have new cups very soon in the processes that are taking place at our facility from the moment to
1:51 pm
comfortable until they are released, how do i conclude and training procedures, stimulation of social activities, etc. data all happens under video cameras, surveillance. we see that behavioral corrections are required at a certain stage as to when we see that. and then i'm always afraid of humans. what we, what the, if it's shy of physically weak maple just slowing, prefers to wait till an animal from another little hands down at the desk. that's when we give an animal special hunting training sessions, training in a little to hon. down the kinds of pray that are easy to track down it and get close to that, which is that hard to wrestle down. he's got a for example, they won't boys a powerful animal. yes, los long with short legs and a short neck. well, wrestling down indeed, for example, it takes a lot upon about 2 minutes only getting down and bowl can take up to 30 or 40 minutes. let me see if it's the kind of fitness, the tons, 2 year old tubs, into real beasts, vehicle ready to take home any mountain into call courses. so nikolai, we know that the leopards are safe here in this environment, but,
1:52 pm
but does this kind of give them a safe sense of security because when they're released into the wild, will they be safe out there of this large company? much. so it's important to realize that the main danger to that pause into was, comes from us, human just in any event. it's a fact to that is not related to natural processes. the fact that good for example, in the wild, and it's perfectly normal that applied to touching dogs in another lounge while, i mean even it's out there looking for something to novel, orange goes down. the animal don't even look like it's normal and it can happen to any being with it. let me know if i get what you meant. related factors, however, all are regulated and all a jump here. this odd efforts aimed at developing the reflex with acts of avoiding humans. nicolai's been incredibly fascinating in to learn what you do, but also to watch what these leopards do. thank you very much to experience the
1:53 pm
julia. thank you for bringing me here to this control center where you can really see all of the leopards out in the reserve. as i've heard these leopards take exams. so what kind of exams do they take? how can a leopard take a test? all the animals set from wild release are supposed to pass at has that allows us to be sure that the animal can live in the wilds. what it does, it examines the attitude towards humans and to them any lives of logs that can be sorted by humans. is more than this will be 2nd test is funds and then we set up several funds and see how the lepers attached or praise god a 100 down. so whether they are capable of hunting the while that all get there and how feasible it is for them in the wild. so what happens if leopard fails and exam has ever been the case where you haven't been able to send them out into the wild doc on years? not of course, we will not release an animal that can survive in
1:54 pm
a while. such animals stay in our center forever and are used for reading in most cases. for example, i have a guy here failed her test like because she was too curious for humans. what was so she stays here with us and one i just thought this is i may ask, sitting here and looking at the different leopards. it seems to me that you'll develop a relationship with them. so what are your emotions when you see them sent him to the wild as are you sad? are you happy? is it a mix of both? i used to have to can yes or of course. yes. you know like family to us. we know them. oh, we know they peculiarities like for example, in the fish and hate certain food. so we give him only done the food they like. do we vaccinate them, room, them and look after their house. so there's, they're like little kids to us going. they are released in the wild. it's always an intense moment with loss of emotions. the key 1st leave, there's a joy for having a cheap the result. there is a major program that greatly benefits the future of our country's environment. the
1:55 pm
besides that we become so attached to the animal studies so sad to realize that we won't be seeing them again soon, but if ever has quarterly, the worst thing, the reason you go to the julia, thank you very much for taking the time to show us this is kind of cool that we get to hang out with leopards here in this environment, some pressure to the you can argue preserving the bio diversity of our plan. it should be among our top priorities globally. and it is reassuring to know that set against this stunning scenery, our beautiful people doing this important work. it is a difficult task, but a rewarding one. all leading up to priceless and emotional moments like this one is returning to its proper home to the congress as mountains. the
1:56 pm
the with the discovery of the new world. at the end of the 15 centers, there appeared atlantics laved ray. the slave traders from european countries started building fords on the western coast of the african continent to transport the african inhabitants to america, to be forced into hard labor. until the middle of the 17th century, porch ago had laid the main role in the said process business been great. britain,
1:57 pm
france, and the netherlands took the leadership for this fan of 400 years of legal and illegal slave trade. about 17000000 people were forcefully shipped across the atlantic. not including those who died on the way due to unbearable living conditions. modern historians estimate that for each slave ship to america, there were 5 who died while captured during transportation and peru obliteration of rebellion. this roof was the whole tre. practiced by the leading european countries, took away tens of millions of african lives. the organization of united nations class advised the trans atlantics to laved rate as one of the greatest human rights abuses in the history of humanity. this is the biggest act of deep orientation of people ever seen by mankind.
1:58 pm
the blue i knew the distance of the phillips, it of the series booty a bridge. it was for you and you have them by see it the split this of the at the top, you believe the way needs. yeah. you're saying you missed us and you to see that to those him, but the installment a village doesn't notice. we are gambling with the future of all mankind and we're, we're risking it for not the kind of liberal agenda we see the west now is not really we based, but it's
1:59 pm
a kind of ways i really just create an outside to crowd of all sorts of real estate, practical objections to validation, off creating and kind of city on the hill on the the total is the aggressor today i'm authorized is additional strong site today russian was the country with the most sanctions imposed against it. a number that is constantly growing up in you chose the close thing is just click on anything and we'll see more in the way we'll shift. we're banning all important show russian oil and gas news is suffering the price for
2:00 pm
another country. hope all's well. we're going to reset the fed service thing for the little joe biden in imposing these sanctions on russia has destroyed the american economy. so there's a boomerang, the the, not just for the president of the russian federation who has invited us, but it's also a success for african countries because of russia is a winner. everyone is the winner. they had all the african union praises relations with russia alongside presidents who attend and placed the summons in some pages. but i guess we did great. so what unity just friends and relations about the way of posing such goals for increasing trade with africa and praises. russians were bus relations with the confidence skills and stays out for her latest to a common goal in full strengthening co operation.
