abstract

An essay about one of the most prominent taxidermists of the Kyiv zoological world of the second half of the twentieth century and a highly productive collector of mammals. The researcher worked in the zoological museums of the Academy of Sciences and Kyiv University. In 1960–1970, he collected almost 300 specimens of 36 mammal species from different regions of Ukraine, Central Asia, and the Far East, including materials from the Carpathians, Lankaran, Kopetdag, Issyk-Kul, Kugytang, and the Kuril Islands. The scientist paid considerable attention to science popularisation and published four popular science books, two of which had two editions in different languages, and their total circulation was 213 thousand copies.
