Candela&#8217;s parents, Biziele and Niebla, originally from the Pyrenees, were relocated to the region through a rescue and reintroduction programme.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The favourable environment of Li\u00e9bana\u2014with its stable food sources, traditional pastoral systems and low levels of disturbance\u2014provided the ideal conditions for the pair to settle and raise their chick naturally.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">The power of collaboration\u00a0<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>This success story is the result of more than 15 years of sustained efforts involving local, regional, and national institutions. Wildlife rescue units, such as the Guardia Civil, supported by governments from both Cantabria and Arag\u00f3n, enabled the safe transfer and release of breeding individuals into suitable habitats.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The project, led by Fundaci\u00f3n para la Conservaci\u00f3n del Quebrantahuesos, has also been actively supported by the Picos de Europa National Park, the Ministry of Rural Development and Environment of Cantabria, the public company MARE and local authorities, including the mayors of Potes and surrounding municipalities, as well as technical leadership from conservation and biodiversity officials.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Since the launch of the <a href=\"https:\/\/lifeprobv.quebrantahuesos.org\/en\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">LIFE Pro Bearded Vulture<\/a> project in 2000, a total of 57 individuals have been released into the wild. Out of these, 40 have survived, with ages ranging from 15 years to newly hatched chicks. Additional conservation efforts have included improving habitats, reducing threats such as poisoning and electrocution, and creating artificial nesting sites. The project also supports extensive livestock farming in mountainous areas, which is crucial for maintaining the rural habitat of the Bearded Vulture.&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 decoding=\"async\" width=\"750\" height=\"563\" data-id=\"37433\" src=\"https:\/\/4vultures.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/Bearded-Vulture-in-flight-from-AndreAnita-Getty-imagescanva.png\" alt=\"Bearded Vulture in flight from AndreAnita Getty images:canva\" class=\"wp-image-37433\" srcset=\"https:\/\/4vultures.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/Bearded-Vulture-in-flight-from-AndreAnita-Getty-imagescanva.png 750w, https:\/\/4vultures.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/Bearded-Vulture-in-flight-from-AndreAnita-Getty-imagescanva-300x225.png 300w, https:\/\/4vultures.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/Bearded-Vulture-in-flight-from-AndreAnita-Getty-imagescanva-16x12.png 16w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 750px) 100vw, 750px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\"> \u00a9 Andre Anita\/Getty images-Canva<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"550\" data-id=\"36877\" src=\"https:\/\/4vultures.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/Bearded-Vulture-webcam-corsica-1024x550.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-36877\" srcset=\"https:\/\/4vultures.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/Bearded-Vulture-webcam-corsica-1024x550.png 1024w, https:\/\/4vultures.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/Bearded-Vulture-webcam-corsica-300x161.png 300w, https:\/\/4vultures.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/Bearded-Vulture-webcam-corsica-768x413.png 768w, https:\/\/4vultures.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/Bearded-Vulture-webcam-corsica-1536x825.png 1536w, https:\/\/4vultures.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/Bearded-Vulture-webcam-corsica-2048x1101.png 2048w, https:\/\/4vultures.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/Bearded-Vulture-webcam-corsica-18x10.png 18w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1000\" height=\"903\" data-id=\"35951\" src=\"https:\/\/4vultures.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/sargas-at-the-feeding-station-in-min-June_-c-clement.jpeg\" alt=\"bearded vulture sargas at the feeding station in min June_ (c) clement\" class=\"wp-image-35951\" srcset=\"https:\/\/4vultures.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/sargas-at-the-feeding-station-in-min-June_-c-clement.jpeg 1000w, https:\/\/4vultures.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/sargas-at-the-feeding-station-in-min-June_-c-clement-300x271.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/4vultures.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/sargas-at-the-feeding-station-in-min-June_-c-clement-768x694.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/4vultures.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/sargas-at-the-feeding-station-in-min-June_-c-clement-13x12.jpeg 13w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">\u00a9 LIFE Gyp&#8217;Act<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Integrating biodiversity and rural livelihoods\u00a0<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>A key part of the Bearded Vulture&#8217;s return has been linking conservation with traditional farming. Through the PRO Biodiversidad project, local farmers in Li\u00e9bana are finding new value in wool\u2014previously considered waste\u2014and in sustainably raised lamb.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>By supporting low-impact grazing, the initiative helps maintain the open landscapes that vultures and other species rely on. Wool is now collected, processed responsibly, and turned into a source of income for farmers.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Today, 22 farmers are part of this network, producing over 13,500 kilos of certified meat and wool each year. The short supply chain ensures fair prices and a stronger connection between local products and conservation goals.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The initiative also tackles the challenges of coexistence between wildlife and rural communities. The recovery of the Bearded Vulture occurs in regions with significant wolf activity, which creates tension for farmers. This tension often results in poisoning incidents that severely impact vulture populations, making it crucial to address these wildlife-human conflicts. Conservation and rural development authorities have reiterated their commitment to managing wolf populations effectively, with the goal of achieving a balanced and sustainable coexistence between wildlife and local communities.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Candela&#8217;s flight shows that with long-term vision and effective collaboration, it is possible to reverse local extinctions and restore endangered species to their native ecosystems.<\/strong>&nbsp;<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>For the first time in over a century, a Bearded Vulture hatched and fledged in the wild in Cantabria, Spain.
