However, its population declined drastically in the 20th century due to habitat loss, wildlife <a href=\"https:\/\/4vultures.org\/pt\/blog\/there-are-at-least-two-suspected-cases-of-wildlife-poisoning-per-month-in-portugal\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">poisoning<\/a>, and direct persecution. By the 1970s, the species had become extinct in Portugal, and, in Spain, the population had dwindled to around 200 pairs.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The tide began to turn in Spain by the late 1980s, as targeted conservation efforts and legal protection sparked a remarkable recovery. The Cinereous Vulture population in Spain began to grow, and in <a href=\"https:\/\/4vultures.org\/pt\/blog\/zeal-and-great-determination-the-incredible-story-of-the-first-cinereous-vultures-born-in-portugal-after-extinction\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">2010<\/a>, the species naturally recolonized Portugal, with birds from nearby Spanish breeding colonies beginning to nest there and successfully hatching their chicks. By 2022, the Cinereous Vulture population in Portugal had grown to 40 pairs, but the species remained fragile, and the recolonization process was slow and limited.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full is-resized\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"750\" height=\"500\" src=\"http:\/\/4vultures.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/Aegypius-monachus_8200-LR2.jpg\" alt=\"An adult Cinereous Vulture arriving to its nest, where its chick is waiting. \u00a9 Paulo Monteiro\/SPEA \" class=\"wp-image-39118\" style=\"width:857px;height:auto\" srcset=\"https:\/\/4vultures.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/Aegypius-monachus_8200-LR2.jpg 750w, https:\/\/4vultures.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/Aegypius-monachus_8200-LR2-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/4vultures.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/Aegypius-monachus_8200-LR2-18x12.jpg 18w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 750px) 100vw, 750px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\"><em>An adult Cinereous Vulture arriving to its nest, where its chick is waiting. \u00a9 Paulo Monteiro\/SPEA <\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">The LIFE Aegypius Return project: A new chapter in conservation\u00a0<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>To address the ongoing challenges facing the Cinereous Vulture population, the LIFE Aegypius Return project was launched in 2022. This transnational and multidisciplinary initiative aims to consolidate and expand the Cinereous Vulture population in Portugal and Western Spain. The <a href=\"https:\/\/4vultures.org\/pt\/life-aegypius-return\/project\/objectives\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">project&#8217;s objectives<\/a> are ambitious: to double the breeding population in Portugal, increase breeding success, and enhance connectivity between colonies.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Through a <a href=\"https:\/\/4vultures.org\/pt\/life-aegypius-return\/project\/actions\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">range of actions<\/a>, including the rehabilitation and <a href=\"https:\/\/4vultures.org\/pt\/blog\/cinereous-vultures-soft-released-to-freedom-in-douro-international-portugal\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">soft release<\/a> of Cinereous Vultures, the construction of artificial nesting platforms, and the establishment of supplementary feeding areas, the project is working to mitigate threats and create a safe and thriving environment for the species. By engaging local communities and promoting safe land-use practices, the project is also helping to reduce human-wildlife conflict and promote coexistence with the Cinereous Vulture.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>All efforts are paying off: after one year of the project, in 2023, the <a href=\"https:\/\/4vultures.org\/pt\/blog\/year-one-of-life-aegypius-return-brings-hope-for-cinereous-vulture-recovery-in-portugal\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">number of breeding pairs<\/a> recorded in Portugal doubled, reaching 78\u201381. The 2024 results are nearly complete and will be released soon.

Co-financed by the EU&#8217;s LIFE Programme, the project brings together a diverse range of stakeholders, including local partners and national authorities, to work towards a common goal.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>By joining forces, we can make a real difference for this incredible species. Will you join us? The first step can be as simple as sharing this video to help spread the word about the importance of conserving the Cinereous Vulture.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But there are many more ways to get involved. If you&#8217;re based in Portugal or Spain, you can play a crucial role in helping us combat wildlife crime. If you come across any suspicious activity, please <a href=\"https:\/\/4vultures.org\/pt\/life-aegypius-return\/report-wildlife-crime\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">report it to the authorities<\/a> immediately. Your actions can help bring perpetrators to justice and deter these offences, making a real difference for the Cinereous Vulture population.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Together, we can create a safer future for the Cinereous Vulture.
