Russian scientists, together with Rosprirodnadzor employees, are conducting a "census" of polar bears. Within the framework of the "Master of the Arctic" project, specialists will cover 10 thousand km on an amphibious aircraft La-8. They will determine the population of polar bears in the territory from Yamal to Taimyr using drones, as well as photo and infrared equipment. In addition, experts will assess the level of pollution in the predator's habitats. The collected data will help save polar bears from extinction.
