Several days ago Professor Wiaclaw Bogdanovitz, director of
the institute of biology of the Polish Academy of Sciences and
Professor Martha Gayevska, a DNA specialist of the same institute,
visited Artsakh. The aim of the visit was to study the fauna of our
highlands. Wiaclaw Bogdanovitz said the purpose of their visit is
to set up relations between the universities of Yerevan and Artsakh
and study the fauna of the region together to find out what kinds
of rodents and bats live here and how much damage they inflict on
agriculture. In Artsakh the guests met with the NKR minister of
agriculture and the rector of Artsakh State University. They also
visited the cave near the village of Azokh.
