A dead sea turtle, hanging from a rock on Polyaigos, was found in Galazia Nera Bay, raising questions about the circumstances under which it died. The incident has been reported as animal cruelty, and the sight of the turtle in that specific location raises suspicions of human interference.
Polyaigos, located near Kimolos and Milos, is the largest uninhabited island in the Aegean Sea and is home to a particularly sensitive natural ecosystem. The area is protected under the European Natura 2000 network.

The dead animal was found in Galazia Nera, one of the island’s best-known coves, where recreational boats frequently dock. It is an area with large rocky formations rising above the sea.
The cause of the turtle’s death remains unknown. Among the possibilities being considered as a potential explanation is that it was injured by a passing boat. However, the position in which it was found—hanging from the rock—reinforces suspicions that someone tampered with the body after its death.
