One of the regional sites of the all-Russian action in Barnaul will be the laboratory Museum of Nature of Altai State University. On Saturday, August 26, at 12:00, those interested can get acquainted with the birds and mammals of Altai Krai on a 60-minute excursion. Address: Lenin Avenue, 61; office 402 L.

Head of the laboratory Museum of Nature of Altai State University, an associate professor of the Department of Ecology, Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Candidate of Biological Sciences Victor Petrov notes:

– I am glad that Altai State University has been participating in such a significant event on the all-Russian scale for the second year in a row. We will gladly open our doors to residents of the region who are passionate about flora and fauna. During the excursion, you will be able to see specimens from the laboratory Museum of Nature, including both birds and animals, and learn more about their habitat, diet, and much more.

The excursion flash mob is aimed at developing tourism in Russia. The action was born in 2017 in Omsk, and in 2022 it became international. The organizers say: “In order to be a bearer of the idea of tourism and broadcast it outward, you need to know and love the place where you live.” An excursion flash mob is a single day a year when residents of a particular region can get to know their usual place of residence in depth by attending free excursions, lectures, master classes, tastings and creative meetings, and more.
