In 1997 the ESRC commissioned Professor Vladimir Flint of the Russian Academy
of Sciences to write a book based on his life's work as a scientist and
conservationist, focusing on the wide array of endangered and threatened
species in the Russian Republic. It details the status, distribution, and
conservation needs of virtually every endangered species in Russia. The
book, now nearly complete, will be published and distributed in Russia
at no cost to Russians. This enormously important work, funded by a generous
grant from ESRC Board of Directors member Dr. Dan Brimm, will be translated
into English, then published and distributed worldwide by a major U.S.
or European press. We expect this landmark book to be the standard reference
for conservation of endangered species in Russia for decades to come. The
ESRC is honored to be able to make this work possible, and we look forward
to seeing the recommendations in the book result in action to save many
of these endangered species in the wild. |
