*[Enwl-eng] This dolphin family holds rare genes that date back to the ancient Greeks

Help be a part of preserving our world's precious marine heritage! This Italian City's Iconic Ancient Dolphin Population Must Be Protected      Sign Now        In the Gulf of Taranto off the coast of Italy, scientists have made an amazing discovery: the local dolphin population could be descendants of the dolphins the Ancient Greeks saw. With over half of the Mediterranean's dolphins and whales threatened with extinction, this surprising marine haven must be protected. While Taranto's local politicians are working with scientists to establish a marine protected area (MPA) in the gulf, it is pending approval with no clear deadline.    Sign the petition to demand Italy's Ministry of Environment allow Taranto to establish an MPA quickly to protect this ancient dolphin family!   The ancient city of Taranto has thrived since 706 B.C, and is now growing into a bustling industrial hub. Home to a NATO command center and Italy's largest Naval base, the city's growing industrial activities pose severe risks to these dolphins. An MPA would boost marine preservation efforts, increase resources for research, and set rules aimed at limiting noise pollution and ship traffic. Sign this petition to urge Italy's Ministry of Environment to swiftly establish a Marine Protected Area in the Gulf of Taranto to safeguard its marine inhabitants and ensure the survival of its iconic dolphins! Thank you, Jess Care2 Petitions Team P.S. Let's ensure that Taranto can once again be known as the city of dolphins. Act now!      Sign Now
