Visiting Andrey, the local Nenets
We were carrying out research works in the Pechora Sea and on the costs of Vaygach Island. Today, a group of Marine Mammal council experts disembarked on Vaygach, and the LMSU Marine Research center specialists continued to research the Atlantic walrus nutritive base. Meanwhile, ornithologists who also participate in the expedition, were researching birds on Vaygach, and the major part of the expeditionary group visited Andrey Vylka, a local Nenets and Vaygach old-timer. Expedition participants brought him rubber boots and products from the Marine Mammal Council.
