The main aim of this action is to make a greater number of nesting platforms available for the Cinereous Vulture to nest and settle in the territory, increasing the recruitment of individuals and consequently this colony, which covers the Douro Internacional Nature Park (PNDI) and the neighbouring Arribes del Duero Nature Park (PNAD) in Spain.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-uagb-advanced-heading uagb-block-83887e31\"><h2 class=\"uagb-heading-text\"><strong>Where were the nests placed and what are they made of?<\/strong>&nbsp;<\/h2><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>Nest sites and structures are chosen to mimic the species&#8217; natural nesting process as much as possible. Unlike most vultures, which nest in rocky cliffs, the Cinereous Vulture nests mainly in large trees. The nests have therefore been installed in trees such as juniper, holm oak or cork oak. The nests have a metal structure that mimics the shape of a natural nest and a sturdy net that supports the material used to make the interior more natural, such as small branches and woody shrubs and sheep&#8217;s wool. These materials make the nests more welcoming and attractive to the target species.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped wp-block-gallery-1 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" data-id=\"39317\" src=\"https:\/\/4vultures.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/4-1024x768.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-39317\" srcset=\"https:\/\/4vultures.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/4-1024x768.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/4vultures.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/4-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/4vultures.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/4-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/4vultures.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/4-1536x1152.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/4vultures.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/4-2048x1536.jpg 2048w, https:\/\/4vultures.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/4-16x12.jpg 16w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" data-id=\"39315\" src=\"https:\/\/4vultures.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/2-1-1024x768.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-39315\" srcset=\"https:\/\/4vultures.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/2-1-1024x768.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/4vultures.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/2-1-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/4vultures.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/2-1-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/4vultures.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/2-1-1536x1152.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/4vultures.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/2-1-2048x1536.jpg 2048w, https:\/\/4vultures.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/2-1-16x12.jpg 16w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"578\" data-id=\"39316\" src=\"https:\/\/4vultures.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/3-1-1024x578.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-39316\" srcset=\"https:\/\/4vultures.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/3-1-1024x578.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/4vultures.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/3-1-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/4vultures.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/3-1-768x434.jpg 768w, https:\/\/4vultures.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/3-1-18x10.jpg 18w, https:\/\/4vultures.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/3-1.jpg 1280w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-uagb-advanced-heading uagb-block-444b3067\"><h2 class=\"uagb-heading-text\"><strong>Nesting in trees is a peculiarity of this vulture that entails risks<\/strong>&nbsp;<\/h2><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>Because it nests in trees, the Cinereous Vulture is at increased risk: it is more vulnerable to and affected by forest fires. Precisely for this reason, another line of action of the LIFE Aegypius Return project is to promote habitat management and increase natural resilience to forest fires around the breeding colonies. In 2017, for example, the PNDI colony was affected by a forest fire that destroyed the species&#8217; only nest at the time, killing the little Cinereous Vulture chick.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-uagb-advanced-heading uagb-block-cde14cd5\"><h2 class=\"uagb-heading-text\"><strong>Cross-border colony has eight nesting pairs<\/strong>&nbsp;<\/h2><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>Currently, the Douro Internacional transboundary colony has eight nesting pairs, five in the PNDI and three in the PNAD, which is already a very positive number, given the context and evolution in recent years. However, of these pairs, only five have laid eggs this breeding season and only four chicks (two in each country) have survived to become independent.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-uagb-advanced-heading uagb-block-94b883f7\"><h2 class=\"uagb-heading-text\"><strong><em>Soft release of <\/em><\/strong><strong>Cinereous Vultures is another strategy to increase colony size<\/strong>&nbsp;<\/h2><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>The Cinereous Vultures only lay one egg per breeding season\/year and the offspring only reach sexual maturity at five or six years of age, so their reproductive success is very limited and conditioned. Any incident that causes offspring mortality has a great generational and population impact on this species. For this reason, in addition to building artificial nests, the project will boost the number of individuals in this colony by 2027, by returning 20 Cinereous Vultures from wildlife recovery centres to the wild in this region, after they have undergone a period of acclimatisation (adaptation to the environment) and <em>soft release<\/em> in the structure specially built for this purpose at PNDI.
