The European bison is the heaviest mammal in Europe: it may weight up to 1,000 kilograms and can grow up to 2 meters tall. The ancient bison were more massive, which made them a desired trophy for hunters. By 1920 this wild ox almost disappeared from the continent. All modern species originate from the only 12 animals that survived at that time in zoos and reserved areas.

Ecologists made a lot of effort to breed as many of them as they could, and by 2020 their population was already over 8,000 animals.

One of the sites where bison are being taken care of today is the Bryansk Forest Nature Reserve: there are about 120 animals living in an ideal environment, that was created for them.

If you have troubles with watching such videos, choose 4K or HD quality in the settings of your YouTube player. We hope that YouTube will find a solution for optimization this videoformat to make it watchable for common users.

Also here is the answer for a frequently asked question about true resolution of an 8K 360° video.

Unlike regular videos, while watching 360° videos YouTube show us only a specific field of view similar to human eye (by default 100 degrees out of 360). As a result, the resolution of the visible part of 8K video uploaded to our channel is around 2K (1920p). If you watch in 4K mode the resolution of the visible part would be even less - around 1080p (1K).

Please note that AirPano team originally shoots its films in 16,12,10,8K resolution, depending on year and cameras used back then. But before upload to YouTube channel we downscale all our videos to 8K.
