The article “Challenges and science-based implications for modern management and conservation of European ungulate populations” deals with topical issues in the study, management and conservation of ungulates. Springer commended the articles as “world-changing”.
The paper was prepared by an international team of authors (35 researchers) as follow-up of the International Conference “Ungulates in a changing world – consequences for population dynamics, migration and management” that took place in Belarus. Russia was represented at this large forum by scientists from Moscow, Kirov and Petrozavodsk. Karelian researchers made presentations about the distribution and management of commercial species populations, conservation of rare ungulates, and aspects of semi-free ranging of animals of this group in our region.
The conference discusses issues related to ungulate ecology and management of their populations: changes in distribution and abundance, including climate change effects, migration, genetic studies, conservation of rare species, ungulates as mediators of diseases, demand for closer international cooperation and population monitoring at the intergovernmental level, and other pressing problems.

Scientists of KarRC RAS tested a new underwater acoustic system in freshwater bodies
A new underwater acoustic system was tested out in the field by specialists of the Laboratory of Fish and Aquatic Invertebrates Ecology, Institute of Biology KarRC RAS, during an expedition to Lake Syamozero in the summer 2025. The device was used to estimate the fish stocks, to determine the fish species composition, and to map the lake’s depths.
