In 1997, the first successful breeding event was recorded. Since then, the population has grown steadily.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>By 2021, the Alps hosted 65 breeding pairs, and the number of fledglings had increased from zero in 1995 to 42 in 2021. However, this growth has not been evenly distributed across countries. Switzerland saw the largest increase in breeding pairs, while Austria had the smallest.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>What determines breeding success?<\/strong>&nbsp;<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>In the recently published research, the evolution of Bearded Vulture breeding in different Alpine countries and regions was examined. The aim was to understand what factors explain regional differences in the number of breeding pairs and their success in raising young.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The study considered both environmental and individual variables:&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Environmental factors<\/strong> included nest location, the presence of protected areas, and food availability (measured via ibex density).\u00a0<br>\u00a0<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Individual bird traits<\/strong> included origin (released or wild-hatched), age, years paired with the same partner, and parental relationships.\u00a0<br>\u00a0<br>\u00a0<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Key results<\/strong>\u00a0<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Overall breeding success<\/strong> across the Alps (measured as the proportion of occupied territories that produced a fledgling, out of 578) was <strong>60%<\/strong>.\u00a0<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>France: 60%\u00a0<br><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Italy: 64%\u00a0<br><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Switzerland: 65%\u00a0<br>\u00a0<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Austria: only 36%\u00a0<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter size-full is-resized\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"940\" height=\"595\" src=\"https:\/\/4vultures.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/image-5.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-39981\" style=\"width:791px;height:auto\" srcset=\"https:\/\/4vultures.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/image-5.png 940w, https:\/\/4vultures.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/image-5-300x190.png 300w, https:\/\/4vultures.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/image-5-768x486.png 768w, https:\/\/4vultures.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/image-5-18x12.png 18w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 940px) 100vw, 940px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Five main factors<\/strong> explained breeding success:\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Nest elevation<\/strong> (positive effect)\u00a0<br><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Presence of protected areas<\/strong> (positive effect)\u00a0<br>\u00a0<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Proportion of open areas<\/strong> (negative effect)\u00a0<br><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Pair composition<\/strong> \u2013 pairs formed by two wild-hatched individuals had around <strong>30% higher breeding success<\/strong> than mixed or fully released pairs\u00a0<br>\u00a0<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Pair bonding duration<\/strong> \u2013 longer pair duration correlated with higher breeding success\u00a0<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter size-full is-resized\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"940\" height=\"633\" src=\"https:\/\/4vultures.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/image-3.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-39979\" style=\"width:654px;height:auto\" srcset=\"https:\/\/4vultures.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/image-3.png 940w, https:\/\/4vultures.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/image-3-300x202.png 300w, https:\/\/4vultures.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/image-3-768x517.png 768w, https:\/\/4vultures.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/image-3-18x12.png 18w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 940px) 100vw, 940px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Lessons for conservation<\/strong>&nbsp;<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The results show that the Alpine Bearded Vulture reintroduction programme has been a major success, with a steady increase in both breeding pairs and fledglings over the years. Notably, reproductive success in the Alps is higher than in other regions such as the French and Spanish Pyrenees, even in areas with lower breeding performance or among less optimal pair compositions.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Interestingly, <strong>the number of birds released in a region did not predict breeding success<\/strong>. For example, the Eastern Alps saw the highest number of releases but recorded the lowest breeding success. This suggests other factors, such as <strong>adult survival<\/strong>, play a key role \u2014 particularly in the eastern and southern Alps, where survival rates are lower, as noted in a recent study (Schaub et al. 2024).&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Another key finding: <strong>protected areas<\/strong> appear to support both the establishment and success of Bearded Vulture pairs. However, further research is needed to fully understand the roles of food availability and protected area networks in influencing long-term breeding outcomes.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-buttons is-layout-flex wp-block-buttons-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-button\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link wp-element-button\" href=\"http:\/\/Read the full paper: https:\/\/conbio.onlinelibrary.wiley.com\/doi\/10.1111\/csp2.70027\">Read the full paper<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-uagb-image uagb-block-063175b7 wp-block-uagb-image--layout-default wp-block-uagb-image--effect-static wp-block-uagb-image--align-none\"><figure class=\"wp-block-uagb-image__figure\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/4vultures.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/IBM-LOGO.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"uag-image-16955\" width=\"370\" height=\"310\" title=\"IBM LOGO\" role=\"img\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">La&nbsp;<a href=\"http:\/\/www.gyp-monitoring.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">International Bearded Vulture Monitoring Network (IBM)<\/a>&nbsp;is a unique international collaboration between national &amp; natural parks and non-governmental organisations, coordinated by the Vulture Conservation Foundation (VCF), to monitor the population of the Bearded Vulture in Europe.&nbsp;<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>The IBM-network collects, shares and makes available Bearded Vulture data to everyone working for the species\u2019 conservation.
