In the diversity of pearl of the nature in Albania, known for its richness in particular underpin comprehensive biodiversity values, land and sea ecosystems, habitats and species of flora and fauna, which extend from the marine-coastal belt up to the field-montane and most in-depth, high in the mountains has a national and international importance. The high diversity of ecosystems and habitats offers rich habitats for a variety of plants and animals. This diversity is attributable to the country's geographic position as well as geological, hydrological, climatic, soil and relief characteristics. About 36% of the country's territory is covered by vegetation. There are still natural and semi-natural areas, where the degree of human intervention is almost absent or less sensitive. These areas, even preserve their true values of natural, both require special attention and care. For these reasons, Albania as part of the Balkan region as an area of global importance for biodiversity, referred to as a hot-spot of global biodiversity and that attention to this region is required to be pronounced by competent institutions and the entire community. Nature protection and biodiversity conservation is ensured through a number of legal and institutional mechanisms, which in Albania, especially in the last decade have taken a dimension oriented by principles stemming from international conventions in the field of nature and biodiversity. These mechanisms are already being further consolidate and being adapted to European Union standards.
