The Irbis Association handed over 4 off-road vehicles, spare parts and winter uniforms to the staff of the Department for the Protection, Use and Reproduction of Wildlife of the Altai Republic.
Transportation for raids in difficult conditions and comfortable winter field clothing will allow Altai inspectors to increase the effectiveness of anti-poaching raids, including patrolling in snow leopard habitats.
In turn, the Irbis Association expresses its gratitude to Andrey Turchak, Governor of the Altai Republic, and Alexander Prokopyev, Vice Governor, for their support of environmental protection activities.
Together we can do more to preserve the unique nature of Altai and the snow leopard, the owner of the Altai Mountains and a big cat of amazing beauty.
