Other Protection Measures
In
addition to the areas of environmental protection cited
above, there are also enclosed zones of smaller scale which
are under protection. These serve to protect some animal
species which are either rare in Turkey or in the world,
or face the danger of extinction. These animals are preserved
and bred under special care and some are released into nature
when their populations reach a certain level.
There
are forty such areas of animal protection and they are located
in all regions of Turkey. Below is a partial list of the
animals which are under protection in these areas:
Fallow Deer , Roe Deer ,Bald Ibis, Pheasant , Frankolin
, Partridge, Deer , Wild Goat , Water Fowl, Wild Sheep (mouflon)
