A series of videos - "View from the shelter." It is no secret that special shelters are used for shooting animals in the wild at close range. In each case, the methods of masking may be different. But the main thing is how you can accurately fit into the surrounding landscape. In addition, you need to know the biological characteristics of the animal to be filmed. Some hear well, others see everything, and still others can quickly detect a person by smell. And, of course, good luck. It happens that animals allow themselves to be filmed, although they have already figured you out a long time ago. A lot of interesting things happen in nature.
