The company will save a rare population of crayfish
31 in March 2014 - Wargaming Company and the public charitable organization Rakoschit are pleased to announce the launch of an unprecedented action, the goal of which is to save wide-bellied crayfish from extinction. The population of these arthropods is rapidly declining due to the actions of poachers and river pollution.
“Protecting the fauna is the duty of every person,” said Anton Pankov, producer of World of Tanks. “And since people are stronger and smarter than animals, they must also be responsible, including for our smaller brothers.” The project “In Responsibility for Claws” is intended to draw attention to the threat hanging over wide-footed crawfish and to preserve this unique look. ”
Plants and factories dump industrial waste into rivers, forcing crustaceans that cannot exist in dirty water to leave their homes. Many of them die during migration or become victims of fishermen exterminating protected species.
“The fate of the wide-legged crayfish is being decided today,” said Grigori Panteleevich Serov, head of the Rakoschit OBO. “We hope that our action will make poachers fishing for crayfish think about their actions and foster respect for these creatures among young people.”
A series of social events organized by Wargaming and Rakoschit, will start with promotions designed to draw attention to endangered animals. The company is also preparing to publish a multi-volume encyclopedic publication dedicated to the arthropods of the planet. Books will be published in print and digital formats. All proceeds from the sale of publications will go to the fund to protect crayfish.
Details for donations to support and develop the fund can be found on the official website of the project “In response to the claw”.
