Turkish Marine Research Foundation

It's high time we protected what we have left. We must not repeat the mistakes of the past. We are conducting, and will continue to conduct, research to find answers to the questions: what have we lost, why have we lost it, and how can we protect it? Some of our coastlines harbor untouched beauties. Millions of living creatures gather on the shores to feed and reproduce. Lagoons and river mouths provide abundant food for aquatic life. Even if we don't see it immediately, the sands we walk on teem with life. Fish migrations continue in the straits.
