To aware the fishermen and villagers, CBCGDF and its CCAfa for Spotted Seals at Dalian organized a seminar on Changxing Island (where the wildlife crime happened) on Feb 26th. This is a follow-up of the shocking "100 Spotted Seal Pups Found Poached in Dalian" on Feb 11.
Attendees include local communities' representatives, villagers, governmental officials, local NGOs and volunteers, etc. This awareness promotion event aims to educate people, to popularize China's wildlife protection law, and to let people know killing spotted seals is illegal; and instead, protecting those iconic migratory species can bring them alternative sustainable livelihood and hence make their lives better.
The Seminar is also on Live
