The male was the first chick ever GPS-tagged in the nest in the Aude, named after a climbing club that collaborated in the tagging operation. The initiative was framed within the <a href=\"https:\/\/4vultures.org\/es\/projects\/life-gypconnect\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">LIFE GypConnect project<\/a>, which successfully established Bearded Vulture breeding nuclei in the Massif Central and French Pre-Alps to connect the Pyrenean and Alpine subpopulations genetically. The current <a href=\"https:\/\/gypact.fr\/les-lifes\/life-gyp-act-2022-2028\/\">LIFE Gyp\u2019Act project<\/a> builds on its success and ensures the continuity of all monitoring, tagging and releasing actions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Following the movements of Roc Gen\u00e8se<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Since <a href=\"https:\/\/4vultures.org\/es\/blog\/roc-gen%c3%a8se-fledged-from-its-wild-nest-in-the-french-pyrenees\/\">he fledged<\/a>, we enthusiastically followed Roc Gen\u00e8se\u2019s movements, thanks to the GPS transmitter. He spent the&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/4vultures.org\/es\/2016\/08\/18\/bearded-vulture-roc-gen%C3%A8se-wandering-around-in-the-pyrenees\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">first two years roaming in the central Pyrenees<\/a>, returning briefly before heading back again to the High Pyrenees. After being spotted in&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/4vultures.org\/es\/blog\/bearded-vulture-pyrenees-aude-buseu\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Catalonia in 2018<\/a>,&nbsp;the bird has returned&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/wildlifemonitor.org\/telemetry\/public\/RocGenese\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">to the Aude region<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In 2022, however, he was rescued in a forested area at the commune of Tarascon sur Ari\u00e8ge (Aude department). The bird was found on the ground, in reasonably good condition, with one wing hanging down, trying to fly away but unable to do so. It was immediately transferred to Dr Lydia Vilagine&#8217;s veterinary clinic for clinical examination. GPS was still present and marked with a TY 5295 museum ring. No wing lesions were noted, but minor puncture wounds on the tibiotarsals (from clawing or walking through bushes). The right foot was slightly more swollen than the left, but there was no sign of bubble foot. The X-ray showed a dislocation of the right shoulder.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Roc Gen\u00e8se was unable to be released back into the wild<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Roc Gen\u00e9se was transferred by car to the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.hegalaldia.org\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Hegalaldia Recovery Centre<\/a>, where he recovered from the injury but was, unfortunately, unable to be returned to the wild. Within the <a href=\"https:\/\/4vultures.org\/es\/our-work\/captive-breeding\/bearded-vulture-eep\/\">Bearded Vulture Captive-breeding network<\/a>, coordinated by us at the VCF on behalf of EAZA\u2019s Ex-Situ programme, we are responsible <a href=\"https:\/\/4vultures.org\/es\/blog\/pair-bonding-within-the-bearded-vulture-captive-breeding-network\/\">for pairing newcomers<\/a> (either wild-hatched non-releasable birds or captive-bred). A powerful male with an important genetic heritage and reaching sexual maturity, it was time to pair Roc Gen\u00e8se! As he could not be returned to the wild, at the beginning of October 2023, Roc was transferred to the specialised breeding centre Richard Faust Zentrum (RFZ) in Austria, where other injured birds, such as a male from Kazakhstan with an amputated wing, have been able to breed yearly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p>\u201cHe developed well, was very active in the aviary, ate well and made a satisfactory impression.

Every captive-breeding facility within the Bearded Vulture EEP is expected to follow the same protocol to fulfil the species\u2019 needs and ensure its well-being. This includes having a small pool with clean water around 20cm deep and a second one with ferruginous mud.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p>\u201cTaking a bath whenever they want is necessary for the quality of the plumage, reducing ectoparasites.

The aviary where Roc passed away is specially equipped for birds with flight disabilities, and dozens of other injured birds used that same cage. For some unknown reason, Roc Gen\u00e9se was unable to jump off the pond, eventually drowning. The old wing injury probably played a role, as intact Bearded Vultures use the standardised water basins without any problem.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p>\u201cIt&#8217;s hard to imagine that an adult bearded vulture could drown in a pool of water less than 20 cm deep, but the most incredible things happen in this world, and the bruised shoulder played a role in it.\u201d<\/p>\n<cite><em>Martin Reifinger, Forensic expert<\/em><\/cite><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Captive-breeding is fundamental to ensure a brighter future for the species in Europe<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Captive breeding plays a fundamental role in the several initiatives to <a href=\"https:\/\/4vultures.org\/es\/our-work\/reintroduction-and-restocking\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">restock<\/a> and bring back the species to its <a href=\"https:\/\/4vultures.org\/es\/blog\/life-for-the-bearded-vulture-new-project-to-bring-the-species-back-from-extinction-in-bulgaria\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">historical breeding areas<\/a>.
