The Wikipedia article on Slavic Native Faith (Rodnovery) in Russia, citing the Sreda research service's 2012 Arena (Atlas of Religions and Nationalities) survey finding 1.7 million people identifying as Pagan or followers of a traditional religion, of whom about 750,000 were ethnic Russians specifically following an ancestral Slavic religion, alongside scholar Kaarina Aitamurto's 2016 assessment that no reliable count exists and that active practitioners likely number in the tens of thousands.
