This is the helicopter taking off to return to iran. The other two reached their destination safely, but irans Interior Minister said on sunday that the president s aircraft had experience a hard landing and communication had been lost. Several countries have offered to help in the search, which was been hampered by bad weather as you can see from these pictures issued by the azerbaijan red crescent society. Overnight, turkey launched a drone to search for the missing helicopter. This map tracks its progress you can see where it concentrated its search. In the early hours of the morning, turkey said it had identified a source of heat, which it suspected to be the wreckage of a helicopter carrying irans president raisi. It said it had shared the coordinates with the iranian teams. Lets speak to patricia degennaro, professor of International Security at new york university. Welcome to the programme.

this is where they come and rub? some hairs and scratching. i can see there. some bears scratch but almost bears like this. that must be great to see. this is the sort of information emrah and aysegul have been painstakingly collecting for ten years. this is like our eyes in the forest. they ve installed around 50 of these cameras which up help them document the natural behaviour of the animals and their relationships with each other, and they have also collared some with gps trackers to map how they move around in this patchwork of forest and see where they re running into trouble. this is the bear movement,
stops and there s this vast expanse of nothing and the next forest is 1a kilometres away, so this habitat has become really fragmented. the bears have a big role to play in this ecosystem, they keep the balance amongst the animals that roam these forests, the lynx and wolves and even rabbits. we all have a kind of silent agreement with each other, if you take out one species, we could think about the health of the agreement would not exist any more. we are tracking along the bears route looking for any clues to show at least some of them are still trying to make the journey. look. this is footprints. this is rubbing trees.
much more aware than we are and they are working on trying to help nature more than our generation. when we think of forests, we think of that importance to fight climate change, but they are equally important for biodiversity. so much of our wildlife lives and thrives in a forest. as we have seen with the honeybee and that tiny bug it wouldn t survive if it was not for all these trees, it s a precious ecosystem that desperately needs protecting. continuing myjourney of extreme conservation, i m in the mountains
