1. According to the law, we cannot talk about someone’s guilt until such a decision has been made by a court or a marital investigation has been conducted. But the satisfied facial expressions and the finger on the trigger speak eloquently about the attitude of people with weapons to the bear (of which there are at most a few hundred left in Ukraine) – as to prey. Let’s emphasize – we are talking about armed people who have virtually unlimited power over a part of nature conservation territories located on the state border. “Behavioral physiognomy” as a method of the science of human psychology makes it possible to understand a person’s personality type with the help of the analysis of external features of the face and its expression. In the photo, we see the undisguised male bravado of hunters, not border guards, who accidentally discovered the fact of a criminal violation of the law on the border section they guard. However, we will follow the official and criminal investigation.
2. This event happened on the border of the trilateral (one located within three countries) international biosphere reserve “Eastern Carpathians”. This is a shame for Ukraine in front of its neighbors – Poland and Slovakia and the international community. It is proof that we are once again unable to protect common natural values. The war set us back 20-30 years in nature conservation.
