Terra Mater: Amur - Asiens Amazonas: Der schwarze Drache

SYNOPSIS

The Amur serves as a very long border between China, where agriculture was developed since Mao's Cultural revolution and Deng's general leap forward expanded to other sector while practically all the landscape is now man-made, and Russian Siberia, where the economy remained more modest and traditional, which leaves more wildlife somewhat pristine. After centuries of hotly contesting the border, each superpower's regional capital now simply faces the other, with mass tourist exchanges. A few Amur tigers still roam about freely in Russia, while China nearly exterminated the subspecies, but now invests in breeding for nature reserve conservation and loads of admiring tourists.
