“…Four of them are recognized by the World Wide Fund for Nature (Russia) as rare and requiring conservation (WWF (Russia), 2021) (Table2). Of them, Amur (Siberian) tigers and Caucasian leopards are subjects of special national conservation programs implemented in the Russian Far East(Miquelle 2015;Poddubnaya et al 2021) and the Northern Caucasus(Kharchenko et al 2019), respectively.…”

The broadly-used official regional symbols allow increasing awareness of animals, which is essential to their effective conservation and ecotourism development. The presence of animals on the coats of arms of the Russian regions was evaluated. It was found that 49% of them show animal figures, and these regions constitute 76.3% of the country's territory. About twenty animals are shown on the analyzed coats of arms, of which 63% are mammals. The most common are bears (including polar), eagles, and martens. Some rare and endangered species like Amur (Siberian) tiger and Caucasian leopard are also shown. The majority of the regional coats of arms depict only one animal, while two or three animal figures appear together only in a few cases. The geographical distribution of the animals depicted on the regional coats of arms coincides only partly with the true zoogeographical patterns. This is an expected finding because coats of arms are elements of the cultural space, even if they represent natural features. Although the regional coats of arms reflect a small portion of the entity of Russian animals and the choice of animals does not always match the true conservation needs, this auxiliary 'channel' of promotion of the knowledge of animals appears to be valuable.
