※ This video is part of <Docuprime - Secret Land Pamir Part 3 People of the Mountains> broadcast on the date of month and year. A secret land that has never been revealed to the public, the roof of the world, the Pamir, a 4,000m high altitude created by the giant mountain ranges, the world's first, a war of nerves between top predators over a single prey. A total production period of 2 years, endless tracking, long hiding, and the persistence of the production team created this masterpiece. The Pamir Plateau, a familiar name that we have all heard of at least once, is a secret land that has rarely been introduced in Korea. The Pamir Plateau is where the Himalayas, Tian Shan, Karakoram, Kunlun, and Hindu Kush mountain ranges meet, and its average elevation is 4,000m above sea level. Unlike the Himalayas, which are climbed by numerous mountaineers, it is an unknown land that has not been touched by anyone. introduces the creatures that live on this desolate and harsh land. As expected from EBS, a natural documentary powerhouse, they have captured the vivid images of wild animals that are not easily seen. The footage shot using an unmanned camera shows the hierarchy of a wolf pack and the appearance of predators preying on prey. In particular, the scene of a snow leopard and a wolf meeting, which even BBC and NHK failed to capture, is a rare footage that proves the persistence of the production team to capture these guys. They captured the war of nerves between a snow leopard protecting a hunted 'Marco Polo sheep' and a wolf wanting to take the spoils for free. In addition, they have densely captured the ecology of various wild animals living in the Pamirs, such as the ibex (wild goat), Marco Polo (mountain goat), and bearded vulture. The Pamir Plateau, called the roof of the world, is a familiar name that you may have heard at least once, but it has rarely been introduced in Korea. The Pamirs are a plateau formed at the point where rugged high mountains such as the Tian Shan, Karakoram, and Kunlun Mountains meet. It is that high and rugged. However, it is also a region with a different charm from the Himalayas, the other roof of the world. Tajikistan, where the Pamir Plateau is located, borders countries such as Afghanistan, Pakistan, Kyrgyzstan, and China, so it is always in an unstable state and does not allow easy access. Unlike the Himalayas, which many mountaineers climb and challenge, the Pamirs are like an unknown land that no one has touched. It is surrounded by high mountains with an average elevation of over 4,000 meters, but the surrounding area is an endlessly wide plain. It is a dry land where you cannot see any green except for the grass that grows close to the ground, and even that is covered in dust and gray. At the center of the plateau is the Fedchenko Glacier, the largest continental glacier in the world. In addition to the Fedchenko Glacier, numerous other glaciers have played a very important role in the formation of the Pamirs' topography. The water flowing from these glaciers creates many rivers and becomes the main water source for Central Asian countries. However, in recent years, the rapid pace of thawing has caused unpredictable climate change. The sudden snowfall in summer and the unending cold in spring make the lives of nomads living in the desolate environment even more difficult. <Secret Land, Pamir> delivers a message about the hostile coexistence between humans and wild animals and the environmental problems caused by humans, and aims to convey to viewers the vivid images of nomads living on mountains and glaciers and wild animals centered on the little-known secret land of the Pamir Plateau. In particular, the film captures the beautiful scenery of the Pamir Plateau on camera by traveling to the high-mountain lake area that is difficult to access even within the Pamir Plateau and the remote area where only wild animals leave traces. - Part 1 introduces the various wild animals living in the Pamir Plateau and the local ecology of the Pamir Plateau. Among them, it shows the harsh survival scene centered around the top predator, the wolf. In addition to the wolf, it introduces how various animals such as snow leopards, Marco Polo sheep, ibex, and bearded vultures relate to each other and live in the desolate Pamir Plateau. ■ Wolf and Humans Wolves' prey is wild animals, but they attack livestock when winter comes. For the Pamir people who raise livestock such as sheep, goats, and yaks and lead a nomadic life, they are an object of fear and resentment. Through the story of nomads and wolves, we want to show their hostile coexistence. ■ The world's first meeting of top predators A snow leopard and a wolf engage in a war of nerves over a single prey. You can feel the vivid breath of the wild through this rare sight that is hard to see anywhere else. ✔ Program name: Documentary Prime - Secret Land Pamir Part 3 People of the High Mountains ✔ Broadcast date: 2014.06.16
