Roc hatched in&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.zoo-ostrava.cz\/en\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Ostrava Zoo (Czech Republic)<\/a>, which holds one Bearded Vulture breeding pair, part of the&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/4vultures.org\/es\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Vulture Conservation Foundation&#8217;s<\/a>&nbsp;(VCF) captive breeding network, managed on behalf of&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.eaza.net\/conservation\/programmes\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">EAZA&#8217;s Ex situ Programme<\/a>&nbsp;(<a href=\"https:\/\/4vultures.org\/es\/our-work\/captive-breeding\/bearded-vulture-eep\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Bearded Vulture EEP<\/a>) entirely for conservation purposes. After his release nearly one year ago, on 11 June 2022, in the Grands Causses, Roc moved to the Alps, where he spent most of the winter. This spring, he started a tour through France and even visited the area around Paris. He then returned to the Alps but started moving again in late May. He flew all the way north to Bremerhaven (Germany), near the Wadden Sea. Going south again, he crossed the Dutch border on Friday, 9 June. After a tour across the northern part of the Netherlands, he roosted in a tree near the town of Lelystad on Friday evening.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Second known Bearded Vulture fatality in Europe from wind turbine collision<\/strong>&nbsp;<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large is-resized\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/4vultures.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/Latest-movements-of-Bearded-Vulture-Roc-913x1024.png\" alt=\"Latest movements of Bearded Vulture Roc\" class=\"wp-image-34651\" width=\"475\" height=\"532\" srcset=\"https:\/\/4vultures.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/Latest-movements-of-Bearded-Vulture-Roc-913x1024.png 913w, https:\/\/4vultures.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/Latest-movements-of-Bearded-Vulture-Roc-268x300.png 268w, https:\/\/4vultures.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/Latest-movements-of-Bearded-Vulture-Roc-768x861.png 768w, https:\/\/4vultures.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/Latest-movements-of-Bearded-Vulture-Roc-11x12.png 11w, https:\/\/4vultures.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/Latest-movements-of-Bearded-Vulture-Roc.png 1140w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 475px) 100vw, 475px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Latest movements of Bearded Vulture Roc \u00a9 Vulture Conservation Foundation <\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Ahead of his release, Roc was equipped with a GPS transmitter and was continued to be monitored by the new <a href=\"https:\/\/4vultures.org\/es\/blog\/life-gypact-project-restoring-the-bearded-vulture-metapopulation-between-the-alps-and-the-pyrenees\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">LIFE Gyp&#8217;Act project<\/a> team, the continuation of LIFE GypConnect, aiming to consolidate the Bearded Vulture population in South-eastern France, ensuring the connection between the Pyrenean and Alpine populations.

Hans Pohlmann, the president of the management board, himself a resident of the Netherlands, even visited Roc at his roost Friday night.

With the increasing populations and the significant increase in wind farms in several places where Bearded Vultures now occur, such as the vital corridor between the Alps and the Pyrenees in southern France, this number might grow in future years. The VCF and partners have been engaging with researchers and with energy operators to provide data about the occurrence of this species, to try to prevent the establishment of wind farms in&nbsp;<a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/4vultures.org\/es\/blog\/habitat-modelling-helps-assess-risk-of-wind-farms-for-bearded-vultures-in-the-alps\/\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">important corridors and breeding areas<\/a>&nbsp;or to explore effective mitigation techniques that help prevent collisions, such as automated detection of incoming flying birds leading to temporary shutdowns. In places like the Netherlands, where the Bearded Vulture is a vagrant, it is important for operators to be open to some flexibility and to develop shutdown on-demand processes that can avoid problems like this in some situations. In some areas in the Netherlands, these systems are in place already.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>For more information, please contact Hans Pohlmann at\u00a0<\/strong><a
