Every year many birds are found in bad physical condition, or injured. They enter the impressive network of rehabilitation centers managed by the Junta. While some of them are quickly rehabilitated and then released, others have serious injuries that prevent them from surviving in the wild, broken wings, amputated feet, etc.<\/p>\n<p> The Junta de Andalucia has now handed over 9 birds with permanent injuries to the VCF and GREFA, so that they are used in the captive breeding programme. GREFA received 3 unrecoverable birds, to join the two pairs they already have at their captive breeding facilities in Madrid, while VCF received 6 birds, that will now be distributed among zoos in Spain, France and the UK, as part of the black vulture EEP (European Endangered species Programme), co\u2013coordinated by EAZA and Planckendael Zoo (Mechelen, Belgium).<\/p>\n<p> The 4 healthy birds have also been handed over to GREFA and the VCF \u2013 two for release in the GREFA-led reintroduction project in the Catalan Pyrenees, and two for the LPO-led reintroduction project in France \u2013 both projects have now already re-established the species in those regions, with several breeding pairs raising successfully young in nature.<\/p>\n<p> The black vulture population has been increasing in Spain, and totals now more than 2,000 pairs, mostly in Extremadura and Andalusia.\u00a0 Black vultures went extinct in France more than 100 years ago, but a reintroduction project started in the early 90s in the Grands Causses. There 53 individuals were released between 1992 and 2004, both from wild origin (rehabilitation centers in Spain) and also from captive breeding. \u00a0In 2004 black vultures started to be released in two other release sites, in the Southern Alps \u2013 in Baronnies and in the Gorges du Verdon. There are now more than 30 breeding pairs of black vultures at the three release sites in France, and while releases will continue for 2-3 more years, the species has now been firmly re-established &#8211; a great wildlife comeback only made possible by a joint, solid cross border collaboration between the French and the Spanish ministries, the Juntas de Extremadura and Andalusia and NGOs like the VCF, Association Vautours en Baronnies, the Black Vulture Conservation foundation and LPO.<\/p>\n<p> The VCF would like to thank the Junta de Andalusia for all their efforts for the conservation of the black vulture and their unwavering support for the reintroduction projects.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The regional government of Andalusia handed over this week 13 Eurasian black vultures (Aegypius monachus) to the Vulture Conservation Foundation (VCF) and the Grupo de Rehabilitaci\u00f3n de la Fauna y su H\u00e1bitat (GREFA), in a ceremony hosted by Maria Jes\u00fas Serrano, the Regional Minister of Environment and Spatial Planning, Rafaela Cresp\u00edn Rubio (the central government [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_uag_custom_page_level_css":"","site-sidebar-layout":"default","site-content-layout":"","ast-site-content-layout":"default","site-content-style":"default","site-sidebar-style":"default","ast-global-header-display":"","ast-banner-title-visibility":"","ast-main-header-display":"","ast-hfb-above-header-display":"","ast-hfb-below-header-display":"","ast-hfb-mobile-header-display":"","site-post-title":"","ast-breadcrumbs-content":"","ast-featured-img":"","footer-sml-layout":"","ast-disable-related-posts":"","theme-transparent-header-meta":"","adv-header-id-meta":"","stick-header-meta":"","header-above-stick-meta":"","header-main-stick-meta":"","header-below-stick-meta":"","astra-migrate-meta-layouts":"default","ast-page-background-enabled":"default","ast-page-background-meta":{"desktop":{"background-color":"","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"tablet":{"background-color":"","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"mobile":{"background-color":"","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""}},"ast-content-background-meta":{"desktop":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-5)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"tablet":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-5)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"mobile":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-5)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""}},"footnotes":""},"categories":[10],"tags":[14],"class_list":["post-6556","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-news","tag-cinereousvulture"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.2 -
