Nature & wildlife in Mallorca
Nature & wildlife on Mallorca encompasses native and introduced species, the habitats they depend on and the ways people live alongside them. Hunting seasons, protected areas and wildlife sightings are recurring subjects, as are decisions about managing animal populations. Conservation work spans wildlife rescue, species research and the care of forests, dunes and marine habitats. Animal welfare and environmental pressures add to the discussion about how the island’s ecosystems are protected.
