"Stop Turtle Dove Hunt!"
Turtle dove has been part of human culture where ever it is found.
However, its population has declined by around 80% over the last 40 years and it was declared to be threatened globally in 2015. This elegant species is facing extinction risk. Its future depends on what our actions will be today.
Consequently, your support to this campaign is important for the species future. Help us to remove Turtle Dove from the list of legally targeted hunting birds in Northern Cyprus.
Bonelli's Eagle Not Fit to Fly
After almost a months of rehabilitation Bonelli's Eagle is still not fit to fly!
But this is not the end. our efforts will carry on!
Bonelli's Eagle Fit and Free
This time it is free to go after rehabilitation for almost 2 months. Our first trial to release it ended up with failure but we did not give, we did not stop... With help of lots of volunteers, especially Kutlay Keço and Özgür Gökaşan we managed to get it stronger which ended up with a great success... Now, hopefully it is still flying freely in Cyprus sky...
The Birds-of-Paradise Project
The Birds-of-Paradise Project reveals the astounding beauty of 39 of the most exquisitely specialized animals on earth. After 8 years and 18 expeditions to New Guinea, Australia, and nearby islands, Cornell Lab scientist Ed Scholes and National Geographic photojournalist Tim Laman succeeded in capturing images of all 39 species in the bird-of-paradise family for the first time ever. This trailer gives a sense of their monumental undertaking and the spectacular footage that resulted. Filmed by Tim Laman, Ed Scholes, and Eric Liner.
The Tale of a Bonelli's Eagle
This video tells the story of a poisoned Bonelli's Eagle that was rehabilitated in North Cyprus by a group of local conservationists who have been tracking the status of the species in their country.
The film also discusses the grave problems faced by the Bonelli's Eagle and other birds of prey as poisoning and illegal hunting remain poorly controlled, despite the complete eradication of three large raptor species over the last 50 years.
As our last remaining large breeding raptor, the Bonelli's Eagle is the flagship species for bird conservation in North Cyprus. We wish to use this as an example to raise awareness amongst Turkish Cypriots of these problems and to help turn the tide against the continuing decline of the Island's birds by supporting Turkish Cypriot environmental NGOs.
