Protecting Dugong Habitats in Palau

Protecting Dugong Habitats in Palau: A Call for Support

In the serene waters of Palau, a new challenge emerges that threatens the habitat of the dugongs, a species vital to the marine ecosystem. A proposed military radar project poses a significant risk to these gentle sea creatures, known for their crucial role in maintaining healthy seagrass beds.

Our mission is to safeguard the dugongs and their habitat from the potential impacts of this project. To achieve this, we urgently need funds to support our monitoring efforts. These operations are critical in ensuring the continuous protection of the dugongs, but they come with substantial costs.

Fuel expenses, one of our most significant expenditures, are essential for the regular patrolling and surveillance of the dugong habitats. Your contribution will directly fund these vital patrols, ensuring that we can maintain a consistent presence in the area.

In addition to fuel costs, we also need support for advocacy and outreach efforts. These initiatives are crucial in raising awareness about the plight of the dugongs and influencing policy decisions that prioritize their protection.

Furthermore, your donation will assist in covering the costs of supplies and equipment necessary for our monitoring activities. Every item, from GPS devices to underwater cameras, plays a crucial role in our work.

Your support will be a lifeline for the dugongs in Palau, helping us to keep a vigilant eye on their habitat and advocate for their protection. Join us in this critical mission to preserve these magnificent creatures and their home for generations to come.
