In France, efforts have been made for more than 30 years to\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/4vultures.org\/pt\/our-work\/reintroduction-and-restocking\/griffon-vulture-france\/\">reintroduce the species to Pre-Alps (Baronnies, Vercors and Verdon) and the Grands Causses<\/a>. In Italy, the conservation project \u2018Progetto Grifone\u2019 in the Eastern Alps (NE Italy) boosted the Griffon Vulture population, bringing renovated hope for the species consolidation in the northernmost population of the Western Paleartic.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Breeding record for the Griffon Vulture population in the Eastern Alps &#8211; Italy<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The reintroduction project in the Italian Alps started at the end of the 80s in <a href=\"https:\/\/www.riservacornino.it\/\">Cornino Lake Nature Reserve <\/a>(NE Italy). Since 1992, about 80 birds have been released, serving as a fundamental catalyst for the significant growth observed in the last decades. This season, the population achieved a remarkable milestone by breaking the record regarding breeding pairs (90 pairs) and fledglings (60), as new breeding sites were occupied in the Alpine and Prealpine areas. Breeding biology parameters have also improved, reaching a productivity of 0,68 and a breeding success of 0,84.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"910\" height=\"558\" src=\"http:\/\/4vultures.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/Breeding-success-2023_Griffon-Vulture-Italy-Alps.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-36389\" srcset=\"https:\/\/4vultures.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/Breeding-success-2023_Griffon-Vulture-Italy-Alps.png 910w, https:\/\/4vultures.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/Breeding-success-2023_Griffon-Vulture-Italy-Alps-300x184.png 300w, https:\/\/4vultures.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/Breeding-success-2023_Griffon-Vulture-Italy-Alps-768x471.png 768w, https:\/\/4vultures.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/Breeding-success-2023_Griffon-Vulture-Italy-Alps-18x12.png 18w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 910px) 100vw, 910px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Griffon Vulture breeding success between 2014-2023 in the Italian Alps \u00a9 Riserva Naturale Lago di Cornino<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Feeding stations to improve food availability\u00a0<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>About 60 tons of carcasses enter the feeding station every year, located in the northern limit of the historical breeding range of the species.
