The project builds on the positive outcomes of <a href=\"https:\/\/4vultures.org\/es\/projects\/life-gypconnect\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">LIFE GypConnect<\/a>, which successfully established new breeding pairs in the territory! In total, 46 Bearded Vultures were released, and six pairs were formed: one at the Grands Causses, two in Vercors, and three in Eastern Pyrenees. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Bearded Vultures are a long-lived species; settling a new breeding population takes time and patience. With the \u201chacking method\u201d, nestlings are released in an artificial nest by the age of 90 days old and remain for some weeks, developing muscles and the body structure needed to be able to fly. In the meantime, as the artificial nest (hacking) is placed in a suitable habitat that mimics their natural way of fledging, they get acclimatised with the surrounding natural environment before leaving the nest.&nbsp;Once they reach sexual maturity, in 7-10 years, they will most likely return to this same territory to find themselves a breeding site.&nbsp;Until then, they will probably be exploring Europe&#8217;s mountain ranges!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>We wish the released Bearded Vultures a long life in the wild!<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p> &nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4
