SEMINARS IN THE NEIGHBORING AREAS OF THE NMPANS

20/05/2022

MOm's team visited Northern Evia, Pelion and Skopelos in the framework of the project "Conservation of the Mediterranean seal in the wider area of the National Marine Park of Alonissos, Northern Sporades". The purpose of the seminars was to inform and train local monk seal vigilance teams. These teams were provided with a Rescue Kit containing all the necessary tools for immediate intervention in case of a rescue as well as for the recording of any sightings of Mediterranean monk seals. We would like to thank Happy Paws-Environmental Association of Northern Evia, the Hellenic Biodiversity Observatory, the 1st Sailor Scouts System of Skopelos and the Wildlife Rescue Scout Group for their presence and their willingness to help in the conservation of the species. Finally, we would like to thank Rigas Hotel Skopelos for kindly providing the space for the seminar in Skopelos.
