ZAGREB ZAGREB, Feb 21 (Hina) - A three-day-long meeting of the advisory commission for the agreement on the protection of bats in Europe (EUROBATS), which gathered 57 representatives from 32 European countries and four observers from
Africa, started in the Croatian Environmental Protection and Urban Planning Ministry on Monday. Even though it is still not a member of the agreement, Croatia plays a significant role, because it is one of few European countries which has all of 31 bat species living in Europe. Participants of the meeting pointed to the fact that bats were one of the most endangered animal species in Europe. Croatian Environmental Protection and Urban Planning Minister Bozo Kovacevic announced Croatia would soon join the EUROBATS. He reminded that all bat species in Croatia have been protected since 1978.(hina) it mm
