Due to the great industrial pressure, the northern territories suffer from heavy pollution. This leads to the deterioration of all biological resources in this region, the breakage of natural food chains, including the deer food resources which are crucial for the traditional nature management practices of the indigenous peoples of the North. Unsatisfactory conditions at deer pastures and the improper use of the pasture lands lead to the reduction of deer foraging lands due to their transformation into industrial facilities (mostly). This calls for an assessment of environmental damages done to the territories. It is also crucial to perform an economic assessment of actions aimed at the reduction of anthropogenic load in the polluted areas.
