On September 15, four rehabilitated Griffon Vultures were set free on the island of Cres, one of the Croatian Kvarner islands. The four young vultures, Palina, Coline, Lima and Anton, were found exhausted near their cliffside nest facing the sea, and some were rescued from drowning. After rehabilitation at the Beli Griffon Vulture Recovery Center, they are now freely exploring the picturesque Kvarner islands. The new LIFE SUPport project<\/a> represents a leap of faith for the future of the endangered Croatian Griffon Vulture population.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Four rehabilitated Griffon Vultures were released on Cres Island, Croatia<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

The last vulture species in Croatia, the Griffon Vulture, is considered Endangered in the country, with an estimated population of 125 breeding pairs. The species is mainly absent from the mainland, with the last colonies breeding in the Kvarner islands (which include Cres, Krk, Plavnki and Prvi\u0107). <\/p>\n\n\n\n

As cliff breeders, Croatian Griffon Vultures are among the few colonies that nest right above the sea<\/a>. They build their nests on impressively steep cliffs. This poses a threat to the unskilled fledglings that get too exhausted or cannot fly and fall into the sea. Drowning is among the primary common mortality causes of Kvarner vultures.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Rehabilitation at the Beli Wildlife Rescue Centre<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

Palina, Coline, Lima and Anton were luckily rescued in the islands of Cres and Plavnik. All birds were rehabilitated at the\u00a0Beli Visitor Centre and Rescue Centre for Griffon Vultures<\/a> in Cres, managed by the Public Institution “Priroda”. In Croatia, there is a network of 11 wildlife recovery centres that play a fundamental role in welcoming, nurturing and rehabilitating wild animals to be released into nature.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Back in the wild again<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

After recovering their weight and fitness under the attentive care of the team at Beli centre, the juveniles became ready to be released again in the wild. Ahead of the release, the four Griffon Vultures were thoroughly examined, including blood analysis, with the collaboration of the  Zagreb Zoo.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

They were also fitted with lightweight GPS transmitters, ensuring continuous monitoring of the birds\u2019 movements as they regain their freedom. Griffon Vulture Paline, Coline, Lima and Anton were released on 15 September in Cres, a fantastic milestone for the LIFE SUPport project partners<\/a>\u2019 meeting and workshop that took place that same week.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

GPS Tagging methods, a workshop for local partners<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

During the LIFE SUPport team meeting, there was a workshop about strategies and methods for tagging vultures with GPS transmitters. The workshop was led by the Vulture Conservation Foundation’s tagging experts and hosted by the Beli Recovery Centre. Participants from the Public Institution \u201cPriorida\u201d and BIOM Association learnt how to prepare GPS transmitters and fit them using leg loop harnesses. This method, widely used by the VCF and partners in several restocking projects<\/a> across Europe, is the most animal-friendly option, providing fewer chances of potential disturbances to the bird.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“In the work of a recovery centre, the moment when a wild species “returns” to nature is particularly joyful. They are given a chance for a new beginning! When there is also the possibility of actively monitoring the individual in the wild to confirm whether the individual is doing well, the satisfaction is even greater”, <\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\nsaid Marko Modri\u0107, Director of the Public Institution Priroda, on the occasion of the release of the vultures.<\/cite><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

Securing a future for Griffon Vultures in Croatia<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

A LIFE SUPport <\/a>aims to strengthen Croatia\u2019s endangered Griffon Vulture (Gyps fulvus)\u00a0population. A 5-year project co-financed by the EU\u2019s\u00a0 will create better conditions for the species to thrive and recolonise its historical breeding ground on the Croatian mainland. The project aims to improve breeding and survival conditions, minimise nest disturbance, reduce nestling mortality, tackle the threat of poison, mitigate collision and electrocution risks,<\/a> and increase food availability.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n
