Due to its proximity to Gyaros Island, home to one of the largest Mediterranean monk seal subpopulations in the Mediterranean Sea, the island of Andros has a great potential to be an important area for the conservation of the Mediterranean monk seal in Greece. Within the framework of the project LIFE Andros Park efforts were initiated to accurately evaluate the status of the Mediterranean monk seal at the island of Andros.
This thematic newsletter includes interesting information about the findings of researchers concerning seals, where they are found at the island of Andros and how they use the wider part of Northern Cyclades.
