Following this great news, a team within the\u00a0<a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/4vultures.org\/pt\/projects\/life-rupis\/\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">LIFE Rupis project<\/a>\u00a0equipped both nestlings with GPS transmitters in the nest before they took their first flights.

The vulture left its hatching area in the PNDI in February 2021, and has been exploring new territories between Spain and Portugal, namely the province of Salamanca, the Sierra de Gredos, Extremadura and Alentejo ever since.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1000\" height=\"414\" src=\"http:\/\/4vultures.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/Mapa-de-movimentos-do-abutre-preto-Lechuga-no-peri\u0301odo-agosto-de-2020-agosto-de-2021.-Imagem-Vulture-Conservation-Foundation-VCF..png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-18779\" srcset=\"https:\/\/4vultures.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/Mapa-de-movimentos-do-abutre-preto-Lechuga-no-peri\u0301odo-agosto-de-2020-agosto-de-2021.-Imagem-Vulture-Conservation-Foundation-VCF..png 1000w, https:\/\/4vultures.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/Mapa-de-movimentos-do-abutre-preto-Lechuga-no-peri\u0301odo-agosto-de-2020-agosto-de-2021.-Imagem-Vulture-Conservation-Foundation-VCF.-300x124.png 300w, https:\/\/4vultures.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/Mapa-de-movimentos-do-abutre-preto-Lechuga-no-peri\u0301odo-agosto-de-2020-agosto-de-2021.-Imagem-Vulture-Conservation-Foundation-VCF.-768x318.png 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><figcaption>Movements of Lechuga between August 2020 and August 2021 \u00a9 VCF<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>In recent months, it had been feeding frequently in a rubbish dump located near the city of Salamanca in Spain, a common behaviour among vultures. In these places, scavenging birds find plenty of available and abundant food, but of poor quality, as it may well be contaminated, with a greater risk of intoxication.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>After a dispersive tour, the juvenile Lechuga returned to the territory where it hatched in the PNDI for the first time on 29 July this year. Lechuga likely tagged alongside other vultures that visited the\u00a0<a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.palombar.pt\/pt\/\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Palombar<\/a>-managed feeding station for scavenging birds. A camera trap at the station photographed Lechuga feeding together with five other Cinereous Vultures who are probably sub-adults. Such feeding stations can support the recovery of vultures since they provide plenty of safe quality food, and can therefore prove essential for threatened birds, especially during the breeding season and the dispersal period of juveniles.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1000\" height=\"563\" src=\"http:\/\/4vultures.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/Abutre-preto-Lechuga.-Fotografia-Palombar..jpg\" alt=\"cinereous vulture douro\" class=\"wp-image-18773\" srcset=\"https:\/\/4vultures.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/Abutre-preto-Lechuga.-Fotografia-Palombar..jpg 1000w, https:\/\/4vultures.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/Abutre-preto-Lechuga.-Fotografia-Palombar.-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/4vultures.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/Abutre-preto-Lechuga.-Fotografia-Palombar.-768x432.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><figcaption>\u00a9 Palombar<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Cinereous Vultures in Portugal<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>The Cinereous Vulture became extinct as breeding species in Portugal in the 1970s, mostly due to the use of poisoned carcasses targeting unwanted predators. An increasing population in Spain saw the species regularly visiting Portugal to forage, with the first pair breeding in central Portugal (Tejo Internacional) in 2010 (where now there is a small colony of more than fifteen pairs), and then in north-eastern Portugal (one single pair). And in 2015 the species recolonised Herdade da Contenda in south-eastern Portugal, and has bred there successfully ever since \u2013 there are currently ten breeding pairs there now.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/4vultures.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/PAlombar-logo-1024x1024.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-18780\" width=\"242\" height=\"242\" srcset=\"https:\/\/4vultures.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/PAlombar-logo-1024x1024.png 1024w, https:\/\/4vultures.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/PAlombar-logo-300x300.png 300w, https:\/\/4vultures.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/PAlombar-logo-150x150.png 150w, https:\/\/4vultures.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/PAlombar-logo-768x768.png 768w, https:\/\/4vultures.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/PAlombar-logo-1536x1536.png 1536w, https:\/\/4vultures.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/PAlombar-logo.png 1638w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 242px) 100vw, 242px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery columns-1 wp-block-gallery-1 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\"><ul class=\"blocks-gallery-grid\"><li class=\"blocks-gallery-item\"><figure><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"300\" height=\"105\" src=\"http:\/\/4vultures.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/05\/VCF.LOGO_.Green_-928x324-1-300x105.png\" alt=\"VULTURE CONSERVATION FOUNDATION VCF LOGO\" data-id=\"11125\" data-full-url=\"http:\/\/4vultures.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/05\/VCF.LOGO_.Green_-928x324-1.png\" data-link=\"https:\/\/4vultures.org\/blog\/spainish-anti-poison-professionals-welcome-balkan-colleagues-for-a-two-day-training-course\/vcf-logo_-green_-928x324\/\" class=\"wp-image-11125\" srcset=\"https:\/\/4vultures.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/05\/VCF.LOGO_.Green_-928x324-1-300x105.png 300w, https:\/\/4vultures.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/05\/VCF.LOGO_.Green_-928x324-1-768x268.png 768w, https:\/\/4vultures.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/05\/VCF.LOGO_.Green_-928x324-1.png 928w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/figure><\/li><\/ul><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>In 2020, two Cinereous Vulture (Aegypius monachus) chicks hatched in the Douro International Natural Park (DINP) after the species naturally recolonised the area.
