I'm traveling around the UK.

Switzerland. The country has a State Committee for the Protection of Birds, organized in 1937. It coordinates the activities of its members, as well as (since 1977) bird banding activities. In 1986, the committee was divided into two separate sections, "Coordination" and "Council for the Protection of Birds."

France. The number of quail in the country has decreased dramatically in recent decades. Extensive breeding of this bird in captivity and its release into natural lands was organized. Currently, quail has become common in many areas of the country, especially in protected areas.

Hungary. In 1986, 31,268 red deer, 3,555 European fallow deer, 38,653 roe deer, 1,555 European mouflons, 36,751 wild boar, 653 partridges, 824,596 pheasants (including 68,918 live), 188,388 hares (of which 88,990 live) were hunted in Hungary. During the accounting works in 1987, 51557 red deer, 1,2 787 fallow deer, 216 202 roe deer, 9280 mouflons, 31 688 wild boars were registered.

North America. Five species of geese and geese are most common on the continent, differentiated into 18 subspecies and races and 27 continental populations. In the winter of 1984/85, the populations of the Canadian goose were estimated at about 2.52 million individuals (including 814,000 on the Atlantic flyway, 477,000 in the Mississippi River Valley, 2.51 million snow goose, including the mid—continental small subspecies in 1974), 106 thousand Ross goose, and white—fronted goose. kazarki — 377 thousand, black kazark — 291 thousand individuals. The average annual production of geese and geese on the continent is 2.3 million individuals, ranging from 1.9 million (1974-1975) to 2.5 million (1980-1981). About 75% of the total production is in the United States.

Cuba. The oldest hunter in the country, Fermin Cabrera, lives in the province of Oriento. His age is 109 years old, and he last hunted at the age of 104.

It took only 16 years to overcome the dark forces of nomenclature (the era of stagnation) in order to visit England in 1988 for scientific purposes. It even got to the point that the administration of our institute simply hid from me in 1985 a personal invitation from the Royal Society of Great Britain, which was received by the Presidium of the USSR Academy of Sciences: "They will refuse to de-leave anyway... outdated."

At the end of the 80s, traveling abroad to the capital countries suddenly felt better. There was a growing conviction in society and in the upper echelons of government that the commissions of district and regional committees, which selected those worthy for such trips, were doing this in vain. Meanwhile, the country was losing scientific prestige from repeated attempts to prevent its own scientists from communicating with foreign ones, their natural desire to broaden their horizons, to learn and study foreign experience and scientific materials. Our scientists also suffered from the humiliating trembling in the waiting lists before the "screening": "if they let us in, they won't let us in..." A strange circumstance was statistically revealed: the non—returnees turned out to be those who had been screened through...

In short, when in the spring of 1988 I received, already at home, the fourth invitation from the British Council for Cultural Relations and the Royal Society for a two-week visit to this country at the British expense, I did not even need a medical certificate on my 80th birthday to register my departure.

As a zoologist, I have long considered it my duty to work at the British Museum of Natural History. However, this is the dream of many zoologists, and not only Soviet ones. The fact is that while England was the "mistress of the seas" and a great colonial power, London and its museums accumulated huge collections of samples of plants and animals, minerals, metals, cultural objects, art and everyday life of peoples of all continents, countries and seas. Wonderful libraries and archives have been created with millions of volumes and documents on the history of many countries around the world. By royal authority, scientists, travelers, consuls and officers of the colonial detachments were ordered to collect and deliver to the British Museum all kinds of natural samples and products from the conquered countries.
