Since 1917, the former Soviet Union's unique system of "zapovedniks" has forbidden the presence of people in some wilderness areas, except for scientific study. These truly wild, bio-diverse nature preserves are under increasing threat from commercial development. The founder of the Altai Foundation, Slava Trigubovich is among the Russian Federation's best-known anti-poaching rangers and advocates for the protection of wilderness and endangered species (including the fabled snow leopard).

This speech was given at the 2005 Bioneers National Conference.

Since 1990, Bioneers has acted as a fertile hub of social and scientific innovators with practical and visionary solutions for the world's most pressing environmental and social challenges.

To experience talks like this, please join us at the Bioneers National Conference each October, and regional Bioneers Resilient Community Network gatherings held nationwide throughout the year.
