How Russian scientists live in Orenburg steppes | Expedition to the last wild horses on the Earth

Подробнее о видео

I've got a chance to stay in the nature reserve which is closed to the public, and to see how scientists live and work there with Przewalski's horses. Przewalski's horse is the last species of truly wild horse left on Earth. It was discovered in 1879 by a famous Russian traveler and geographer Nikolai Przewalsky in Central Asia. The species almost died out completely twice in history but now the horses are revived in the centers of reintroduction like Orenburg nature reserve.
