There is a world somewhere between reality and fiction. Although ignored by many, it is very real and so are those living in it. This forum is about the natural world. Here, wild animals will be heard and respected. The forum offers a glimpse into an unknown world as well as a room with a view on the present and the future. Anyone able to speak on behalf of those living in the emerald forest and the deep blue sea is invited to join.

Thank you. Yes, Yura is our favorite ranger. He is a former hunter from Siberia. Once he came to shaman in his local village (not far away from Baikal lake) and he told Yura that he would stop to hunt. Yura didn't trust him as hunting was the way of his life to feed his family. Then he got an offer from Leopard Land National Park to come to Primorye to work as a ranger to protect our wildlife and to kick out the poachers from the reserve. Now he loves what he does, he is passionate with our tigers and leopards, works with famous photographers, so he knows how to do our tours successful and knows a lot about our wildlife. It is very comfortable to work with him. Also he has a friend, Nikolai, he is also a ranger in another part of Leopard land National Park, he is even more passionate than Yura, also former hunter, he knows everything about wildlife and makes his own short movies with the records of his camera traps, we work with Nikolai in another tour where it is possible to see both cats: Amur leopard and Siberian tiger.
