The third corrected and complemented edition of the brochure written by Mikhail Kreindlin, Protected Areas Campaign Coordinator and Andrey Petrov, World Heritage Campaign Coordinator, describes the main threats for the UNESCO World Natural Heritage properties located in the Russian Federation.

That is why the authors decided to remove the query at the end of the title and to place there the full-fledged dot.

The recommendations for UNESCO World Heritage Committee, that could change the situation into a better side, are placed at the end of the text.
