  1. When was the Armenian Environmental Network established? By whom and for whom?
    Brown bears or other wild animals have become trophy for unlawful international hunters, and not just the local privileged.
    AEN requests information and pictures of bears in captivity. It sounds like a good mission. The question is to do what?

  2. barbarism against all creatures of this earth is just disgusting, if people only realize, what goes around will come around, then may be we can live in peace
