In Kamchatka, professional and volunteer rescuers took a training for searching people in a forest
Members of volunteer search team and dog specialists of Emergencies Ministry took a training for rescuing activities.

It is quite common in the peninsula that people, going for berries, mushrooms and for a rest in nature, miss.  There are many threats for people: wild animals, quick fall of body temperature, lack of food and water and other unpredicted situations (a man might be injured). All of these not only make searching more difficult but reduce the time while the suffered person can be alive.

Rescue operation requires not only theory knowledge but constant practice too. Therefore, trainings for volunteer and professional rescuers are taken regularly.

That time everyone acted precisely and well-coordinated. All symbolically suffered people were found quickly and given first aid. There was invaluable help in searching of specially trained dogs.
