Protests in rain and snow – results
Following the started yesterday nationwide protests and the hundreds of people coming out in the streets of various towns in order to say “No to the distribution of GMO in Bulgaria!” the government began to show some inclination towards listening to citizens’ requests and proposals.

Mediterrainian bat entered the Wild Animals Rescue Center
On 29.01.2010 a Kuhl's pipistrelle (Pipistrellus kuhlii) entered the Green Balkans’ Wild Animals Rescue Center in Stara Zagora. The little bat was sent to the Center from the town of Razgrad by concerned citizens who had found it in the town.
This event is interesting as the Kuhl's pipistrelle is a comparatively rare species for the country. It is a southern species which is warmth-and-dryness-loving, inhabits mostly populated places and until recently it has been considered that the species can be found only in Southern Bulgaria. Data from the last years show that it is not so rare for our country anymore but there is lack of sufficient data for its distribution.

International Petition on illegal hunting in Malta
SIGN THE PETITION
DEMAND THAT MALTA RESPECTS THE EU LAW AND STOP KILLING OF PROTECTED BIRDS
During each journey, the European migratory birds are in peril as they fly over Malta, where they continue to be gunned down. Every year, protected species are killed; every spring and every autumn. Law enforcement is under resourced and unable to control the scale of illegal hunting.
Unless we protect the migratory ‘flyways’ over the Mediterranean, conservation efforts in Europe and Africa are in vain. This is because170 bird species regularly migrate over Malta. When they reach Malta, these birds are at their weakest. Many will try to rest on Malta and feed to build up their strength for the last leg of their journey. Instead, many meet their death.
