There are only 540 Mediterranean monk seals left and now one has been brutally killed near the town of Yalıkavak, Turkey. The seal, a female, was bludgeoned and shot to death for no apparent reason. I don’t know if they have the death sentence in Turkey but I hope that if whoever did this is caught they are executed. Some think the owner of a fish farm is responsible.

Is it any surprise that such brutality and cruelty against an innocent animal took place in Turkey.
