Abstract

Bioraznolikost morskih sisavaca u Jadranskome moru je vrlo mala te broji samo jednog stalnog stanovnika, dobrog dupina (Tursiops truncatus) čija se populacija procjenjuje na 250 do 300 jedinki u hrvatskome dijelu Jadrana. Ostale vrste su povremeni ili vrlo rijetki stanovnici. Sredozemna medvjedica (Monachus monachus) je kritično ugrožena vrsta te joj prijeti izumiranje. Vrste iz reda kitova (Cetacea) su tek povremene pojave u Jadranskome moru, a neki od razloga su kitolov, onečišćenje mora bukom ili ksenobioticima, te relativna zatvorenost i nepristupačnost cjelokupnog područja Jadranskoga mora. Jedina vrsta kitova usana (Mysticeti), čija je pojava zabilježena u zadnjih 30 godina, je veliki sjeverni kit (Balaenoptera physalus). Poduzimaju se razne mjere kako bi se osiguralo povećanje brojnosti jedinki sisavaca u moru, od mnogih zakona koji im osiguravaju nesmetan život do raznih istraživanja čiji je cilj poboljšanje uvjeta života. Potrebno je izraditi i detaljan plan upravljanja i nadzor nad ribljim kapacitetima Jadranskoga mora, uspostaviti sustave pročišćavanja otpadnih voda te i dalje provoditi akcije informiranja i edukacije javnosti.

Abstract (english)

Biodiversity of marine mammals in the Adriatic Sea is very low and count only one permanent resident, Common bottlenose dolphin (Tursiops truncatus), whose population is estimated from 250 to 300 units in the Croatian part of the Adriatic Sea. Other species are occasional or rare residents. Mediterranean monk seal (Monachus monachus) is critically endangered species, to be extinct. Species from Cetacean order (Cetacea) are occasional appearance in the Adriatic Sea, and some of the reasons for that are whaling, noise pollution or xenobiotics, relative tightness and inaccessibility of the whole Adriatic Sea area. Only Mysticeti species, which has been noticed in the Adriatic Sea in the last 30 years, is Fin whale (Balaenoptera physalus). All kinds of measures are being taken to make sure that number of mammal units in the sea will increase, many laws assure unobstructed life of the marine mammals, so as the researches whose goal is to improve conditions of life. It is required to make a detailed plan of management and supervision of the fish capacities in the Adriatic Sea, establish purification systems of waste water and keep public informed and educated through activities.
