On June 8, 2024, the Macedonian Ecological Society held an educational field research event for its members, led by the head of the “Biodiversity” section, Prof. Dr. Valentina Slavevska Stamenković.
Professor Slavevska Stamenković, together with assistant Jelena Hinić and our Despina Kitanova, educated the present MED members about the stone crayfish that lives in the waters of Ljubanska River and is a Natura 2000 species.
The professor personally demonstrated how to take samples directly from the waters and explained why this species is so important. In addition to the members, the field research was also attended by the media team of TRT Balkan and journalist Hristijan Stanoević, who covered the event on a global level.
