Mediterranean Gull

The island is now protected as the Riserva Naturale Regionale Isola Gallinara, a shelter for the Herring Gull, with one of the largest colonies of this bird in the Mediterranean, and for rare plant species and stretches of intact shallow sea floor.

Das Territorium der Insel bildet die "Riserva naturale regionale dell'Isola Gallinara" (deutsch: "Regionales Naturreservat Insel Gallinara").
