Acknowledgments

The author expresses deep gratitude to the employees of the Polish WWF office, especially to Stefan Jakimiuk, for the kind help and support of preparation of this book. I am very grateful to Frank Verhart from the Nether-lands who much contributed to the Project.

This issue would be impossible without participation of the colleagues from the Initiative Group "Belovezhskaya Pushcha - 21st Centuries" who consider Belovezhskaya Pushcha as a natural and spiritual sanctity and who did not spare time and energy to contribute its preservation.

Many thanks also to my wife Tatiana Kazulka for the help and valuable remarks during the preparation and writing this book.
