Synopsis

The Mediterranean monk seal, once abundant and widely distributed, is the rarest pinniped in the world today with no more than 800 individuals globally. Greece hosts over 50% of its remaining population in the last stronghold of the species in the Mediterranean. MOm/ Hellenic Society for the Study and Protection of the Mediterranean Monk Seal has been studying this enigmatic species for over 30 years. This presentation is a summary of knowledge gained on its biology and on results achieved in its conservation.
