We are back to Kronotsky Nature Reserve, a unique place where one could admire untouched nature of Kamchatka.

The last eruption of this still active volcano took place in 1923. Today the crater is sealed with large boulders.
Presence of few people who live in the reserve can be traced by little houses standing among virgin nature.
The huts hide themselves this way – only the roof can bee seen on the surface.
These huts make the tourist zone of the natural reserve. One is also hidden in the snow.
This one is having fluffy guests.
Evening by a volcano.
Kamchatka is the world of genies.
Run!
Sea monsters.
Swan winter.
Foxes are not afraid of people here, they do their daily business and don’t pay attention to two-legged creatures. The most interesting part in foxes’ behavior is the tail. They need it for many different things:
Sail tail to move faster.
Pillow tail.
Tail as an elevation rudder.
For balancing on two legs.
As an attack banner.
Additional supporting point.
Pennant tail “Everything is mine here”
Glutton is a very cautious animal and it is not as easy to shoot as foxes. It’s active mostly at night, so these pictures are very valuable and pleasant for their proud author.

Alas, 10 years and man will have this place destroyed…
I do hope they conserve this beauty. Thanks for the glimpse.
how much for 100 acres?
The bear looking at the photographer in the first photo knows he is master of the realm and that the entire countryside is his back yard as he he unashamedly urinates in the water and scratches his testicles.
Beautiful and wild.
Another use of the foxes´ tailes – good winter coat for mi
this is so amazing, tanks for sharing this pictures
Beautiful photos!
Pillow tail = Firefox
Russia needs foreign capital, money, investment. It only has a limited amount of wealth left, natural beauty being one of those. This space, this wealth will be sold off to the highest bidder. It’s impossible to argue against an empty belly.
Russia does not need the “investments”. It is a myth (popular in the Western press). In our country we have the money, just need to use them effectively.
If you looked at the photos on this site, you have probably noticed a lot of abandoned buildings, factories, etc. In my opinion, it’s all the result of mismanagement of funds.
Dude, spare us your pitiful ignorance. The Russians don’t need any assistance from outside. You obviously don’t understand the Russian nation.
Breath taking photos. Thanks!
Thats not a glutton (?) thats wolverine.
He’s translating directly from the Russian, obzhor, obzhrat’ is a strong word for eating too much =)
I had to save some of the pics, BREATH TAKING as someone already mentioned.
