 Forest fires, that destroyed bear habitats in Tuva, forced the bears into a corner - as "Komsomolskaya pravda" informs us. Emaciated and homeless, when they gave it some thought, they took off and went on the road.
- According to information of hunters from Tuva, about 80 bears went on the move, - says Mikhail Kokorin from Kaz village. - They left their homes and are moving towards Kuzbass. Our taiga in Gornaya Shoria - that is what is drawing them.
This "army" of bears will soon get to Kuzbass, however, some will separate along the way.

 Tuvan territory is inhabited by 40 - 60 snow leopards; regardless of dangers of poaching, the numbers of the population remain stable. This was announced by the science vice-director of the "Ubsunur depression" nature preserve, Alexander Kuksin. Earlier evaluations went up to 100 individuals. In Kuksin's opinion, the stabilization of the snow leopard population in the region was achieved through the WWF of Russia program for preservation of this predator; Tuvan irbis population is the key cluster for preservation of this species in Russia.

 A notice about a find of an ancient burial came to the editorial office of "Plus Inform". Because the information arrived through three or four different hands, it was not clear at first who and how discovered the burial. It was something like: somebody dug and uncovered some bones by chance. In reality, it was something quite different. But it was very strange anyway.
A skull in the clearing
A team of workers from the Service for protection of objects of cultural heritage went to Mezhegei, where the announcement originated. And young people from the village took us to examine the "autopsied" kurgan. It was quite a long trip through the steppe. Suspicions began creeping up: but just what could they have been digging "by chance" in the steppe?

 Forest fires continue to rage in Siberia, decimating up to 15,000 hectares of forest and forcing the closure of the Tomsk regional airport, Russia's Emergencies Ministry said on Friday.
Most of the fires were fueled by intense heat and strong winds, increasing the area by 2,000 hectares overnight.
The worst of the blazes were concentrated in Russia's Siberian regions of Krasnoyarsk, Tomsk, Tuva, Khakassia and Irkutsk, according to the ministry.

 A ceremonial celebration was held in southern Siberia on Monday (July 23) to mark the opening of a newly rebuilt Buddhist temple - Ustuu-Khuree.
Some ten thousand people travelled to Chadan in Russia's Tuva region to attend the opening festivities, which included a procession with people carrying 1,000 Buddha statues led by a green horse, in addition to a prayer service and music festival.
The new temple is an exact replica of a Buddhist temple which was built in 1907 but destroyed in 1937 during the Stalin regime's anti-religious campaigns. It takes its name 'Ustuu Khuree' from the name of one of these destroyed temples. Ruins from the original building still stand in the region, marked by Buddhist prayer flags.
