Mediterranean Monk Seal

The Mediterranean monk seal (Monachus monachus) is one of the worlds most endangered marine mammals, with fewer than 600 individuals currently surviving.

The species is described as critically endangered by the World Conservation Union (IUCN) and is listed on Appendix I of the Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species (CITES). Other international legal mechanisms which recognise and attempt to address the monk seals critically endangered status include the Bonn Convention (Convention on the Conservation of Migratory Species of Wild Animals), the Bern Convention (Convention on the Conservation of European Wildlife and Natural Habitats), the Convention on Biological Diversity and the EU Habitats Directive.

Let's try to save them...my heart is there with them trying to save them.
