The lagoon is distinguished for the great diversity of the living world with about 227 species of plants, 17 species of molluscs, 10 species of amphibians, 24 species of reptiles, some species of fish such as mullet, sea bass and eel. Particularly rich is the world of birds (196 migratory and permanent species), described as “Mediterranean ornithology”, 23 species of mammals: rabbit, fox, wolf, wild boar, etc.
Now even the flamingos enriched it with the water show. Kune Vaini Lagoon in Tale of Lezha is the first protected area in the country, declared as such almost 8 decades ago./p.s./
