euronews Life - The Nature of Altai
www.euronews.com In the south of Siberia, where Russia comes together with Kazakhstan, Mongolia and China, lie pristine lands where people try to live in harmony with nature. In this issue of "Russian Life" we travel to Altai. The landscape is striking. Taiga, tundra and deserts surround the snowy mountains. This diversity is shaped by the Altai mountain range that stretches for nearly 2000 kilometres between two climate zones. So all kinds of nature lovers come to Altai, including paragliders. "When I tell people I'm sorry for the lack of decent roads around here, many reply - that's fine, better keep it that way, we're fed up with driving on tarmac, there's nothing wrong with a little walk," explains Vladimir Milov, a paragliding instructor Some come for trekking and hiking, others for fishing or rafting in the rivers fed by Altai glaciers, for climbing or horse riding. This pristine Altai nature was cherished as sacred by nomadic peoples who inhabited these lands from ancient times. The local tribes, followers of Shamanism, worshipped spirits they saw in mountains, rivers, trees and everywhere in nature. Ludmila Menyailova is a guide at the Novotyryshkino Heritage Centre. "Altaians have always said that in every living plant there is a spirit, a soul, and for them that was essential," she says. The locals still preserve some of this reverence. Though several areas are now being turned into huge resorts, most of the region remains untouched by civilisation. The horse is ... From: Euronews Views: 487 15 ratings Time: 05:19 More in Shows

Runners Race to Survive Zombie Apocalypse
For more news and videos visit ☛ english.ntdtv.com Follow us on Twitter ☛ http Add us on Facebook ☛ on.fb.me Thousands of runners navigate their way to the finish line without getting "devoured" by hordes of zombies hiding along the 3-mile stretch of land in a survival-themed race. Thousands ran for their lives while being chased by hordes of "zombies" in a survival-themed race in the Philippines on Saturday (April 14). Taken from a popular zombie race in the United States, about five thousand runners raced to finish the three-mile course as they tackled a series of natural and man-made obstacles, while dodging an assortment of zombies sprawled along the tracks. [Angelo Cruz, Organizer, Outbreak Manila]: "We all are fans of zombie movies. We like watching zombie shows and it really tickles our imagination and right now, to have it in reality, it's making everyone's summer, I hope." Two hundred actors dressed as post apocalyptic zombies hid behind trees, bushes and rocky uphill climbs to surprise the unsuspecting runners and symbolically eat their brains by stealing health flags attached to the runners' waists. Runners are considered "dead" when all of their three flags are stolen, but they can get additional flags by accomplishing certain optional obstacles that often include a swarm of zombies guarding the prize. The terrain was designed for regular and professional runners as contestants can choose two distinct paths that trade difficulty with the length of routes to ...

Shot in August 2011, I carried my video gear in backpacks over 6 miles up to elevations of 13,000 ft. to get some of these shots. Special thanks to Dr. Nathan Rank and the White Mountain Research Station for invaluable guidance. The petroglyphs in this video are over 1,000 years old. Some of the locations include Mono Lake, White Mountain, Bull Lake, Long Lake, Crooked Creek Station, Barcroft Observatory, Chocolate Mountain, and Yosemite National Park. The Bristlecone pine trees were shot in an area where some of the trees are over 4,000 years old and still alive. Mono Lake was formed around 760,000 years ago. Also, views of Bishop Pass. Music is Milhaud and is polytonal.

Original soundtrack by Matt Abeysekera.

I selected this spot to visit in particular in hopes of seeing mountain goat. We were not disappointed. One surprise however was that my first shot of mountain goats turned out to be big horn sheep (first shot after opening). It was not till reviewing my footage several days later that I realized these were big horn ewes and not scraggly shedding mountain goats as I had first thought.
Reading about these two species after filming this I discovered an interesting sub plot. The goat is allegedly displacing the sheep. It's a more aggressive species and is thought to perhaps carry disease that the sheep are susceptible to. The Bighorn have declined by about 10% over the last ten years and the Goat's territory has expanded (although wildlife officials are attempting to keep it in check).
Wiki:
Mount Evans is a mountain in the Front Range region of the Rocky Mountains, in Clear Creek County, Colorado. It is one of 54 fourteeners (mountains with peaks over 14,000 feet (4,300 m)) in Colorado, and the closest fourteener to Denver. It is often compared to Pikes Peak - another Front Range fourteener - which it exceeds in elevation by 154 ft (50 m).
The peak is one of the characteristic Front Range peaks, dominating the western skyline of the Great Plains along with Pikes Peak, Longs Peak, and nearby Mount Bierstadt. Mount Evans can be seen from over 100 miles away to the east, and many miles in other directions. Mount Evans dominates the Denver Metropolitan Area skyline and can be seen from points south of Castle Rock, up to (65 miles (105 km) south) and as far north as Fort Collins (95 miles (153 km) north), and points east of Strasburg (105 miles (169 km) east). In the early days of Colorado tourism, Mount Evans and Denver were often in competition with Pikes Peak and Colorado Springs.
Bighorn Sheep–Named for the large, curved horns borne by the rams (males). Ewes (females) also have horns, but they are shorter with less curvature.[14] They range in color from light brown to grayish or dark, chocolate brown, with a white rump and lining on the back of all four legs. Males typically weigh 127–316 pounds (58–143 kg), are 36–41 inches (91–100 cm) tall at the shoulder, and 69–79 inches (180–200 cm) long from the nose to the tail. Females are typically 75–188 pounds (34–85 kg), 30–36 inches (76–91 cm) tall and 54–67 inches (140–170 cm) long.[15] Male bighorn sheep have large horn cores, enlarged cornual and frontal sinuses and internal bony septa. These adaptations serve to protect the brain by absorbing the impact of clashes.[16] Bighorn sheep have pre-orbital glands on the anterior corner of each eye, inguinal glands in the groin and pedal glands on each foot. Secretions from these glands may support dominance behaviors.[16]
Bighorns from the Rocky Mountains are relatively large, with males that occasionally exceed 500 lb (230 kg) and females that exceed 200 lb (90 kg). In contrast, Sierra Nevada Bighorn males weigh up to only 200 lb (90 kg) and females to 140 lb (60 kg). Males' horns can weigh up to 30 lb (14 kg), as much as the rest of the bones in the male's body.[17]
Mountain Goat–Both male and female mountain goats have beards, short tails, and long black horns, 15–28 cm in length, which contain yearly growth rings. They are protected from the elements by their woolly white double coats. The fine, dense wool of their undercoats is covered by an outer layer of longer, hollow hairs. In spring, mountain goats moult by rubbing against rocks and trees, with the adult billies (males) shedding their extra wool first and the pregnant nannies (females) shedding last. In the winter, their coats help them to withstand temperatures as low as −50 °F (−46 °C) and winds of up to 100 mph (160 km/h).
A billy stands about three feet (1 m) at the shoulder to the waist. Male goats also have longer horns and a longer beard than nannies. Mountain goats typically weigh between 100 and 300 lbs (45–136 kg);[2] females are usually 10-30% lighter than males.
Nannies can be very competitive and protective of their space and food sources. They will fight with one another for dominance in conflicts that can ultimately include all the nannies in the herd. In these battles, nannies will circle each other with their heads lowered, showing off their horns. As with fights between billies during breeding season, these conflicts can occasionally lead to injury or even death, but they are largely harmless. To avoid fighting, an animal may show a posture of non-aggression by stretching low to the ground.
In lower regions below the tree line, nannies also use their fighting abilities to protect themselves and their offspring from predators, such as wolves, wolverines, cougars, lynx and bears. Even though their size protects them from most potential predators in higher altitudes, nannies still must defend their young from golden eagles, which can be a threat to very young kids. Nannies have even been observed trying to dominate the more passive bighorn sheep that share some of their territory.
Mountain goats can occasionally be aggressive towards humans, with at least one reported fatality resulting from an attack by a mountain goat.[4]
The mountain goat's feet are well-suited for climbing steep, rocky slopes, sometimes with pitches of 60 degrees or more, with inner pads that provide traction and cloven hooves that can be spread apart as needed. Also, the tips of their feet have dewclaws that are sharp to keep them from slipping.

Sichuan Province Dog Has Amazing Tree Climbing Abilities
Take a look at this... A dog that can climb a tree like a cat? Defu, a one-year-and-a-half-old Belgium Malinois who lives in the Shiling pet market in Chengdu, Sichuan Province, has a unique skill of jumping and climbing. Defu's owner said he always hangs the dog's food high on the branches of a tree to train his skills of jumping and climbing. As a result, Defu can easily climb on a six foot wall or even higher. He also has a very good sense of balance, able to walk on the wall just like on the ground. Generally speaking, dogs cannot climb trees, only some specially trained wolf dogs can climb trees six to 10 feet high, but Defu can climb more than 13 feet high. Defu's owner says you must try to communicate with dogs instead of just offering them food to train them to climb trees.
