We all need clean air, clean water, healthy soil, healthy food as well as peaceful, spacious and calm natural environment.
Many of our natural resources, such as forests and water resources, provide what we need. The health and sustainability of our nature depend upon all living creatures, large and small. Protecting the wildlife is crucial for the sustainability of our natural habitat.
As KuzeyDoğa Society, we have focused our scientific studies on the conservation of the animals which are at the top of the food pyramid. brown bears, wolves, lynxes and birds. We believe that our research will form the basis for understanding the ecosystem, since these animals are the fastest followers of climate change. The first step in protecting them and improve their living conditions is to learn about them and understand their vital needs.
