The Caribbean monk seal was the first seal gone extinct from human causes.Will the mediterranean monk seal be next?


(can you bear those seals to be extinct?)

The Mediterranean monk seal lives in caves carved into coastal cliffs by the pounding Atlantic waves of the Cabo Blanco region.The Mediterranean monk seal, which can reach a length of just under 10 feet and an average weight of roughly 750 pounds at maturity, is being steadily driven toward extinction by tourism, fishing and pollution, which have markedly increased over the last 50 years.The species is also limited by the fact that female monks give birth infrequently, and to only one pup at a time. And with fewer and fewer mating options available due to depopulation, inbreeding is on the rise.



can we save it?

Of cause we can.But how?Fine Fishermen for each seal killed.More enviroment friendly human.Make more banners and pass out more fliers.
