An increasing population in Spain saw the species first return to breed in central Portugal (Tejo Internacional) in 2010 (where now there is a small colony of about 10 pairs), and then in north-eastern Portugal (one single pair). Then in 2015 they also started breeding in southern Portugal at there is a population of around eight breeding pairs, in Herdade da Contenda, a large estate owned and managed by the Moura Municipality. In total there are around 25 breeding pairs in Portugal.<\/p>\n<p><strong>LIFE Rupis<\/strong><\/p>\n<figure><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/\/content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/1548352288.jpg\" alt=\"\" \/><\/figure>\n<p>A\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/www.rupis.pt\/pt\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">LIFE Rupis<\/a>\u00a0conservation project, led by Portuguese wildlife organisation\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/www.spea.pt\/en\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Sociedade Portuguesa para o Estudo das Aves (SPEA),<\/a>\u00a0and funded by the\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/ec.europa.eu\/environment\/life\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">European Union&#8217;s LIFE Fund<\/a>\u00a0and the\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/mava-foundation.org\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">MAVA Foundation<\/a>, is working in the cross-border Douro region of Spain and Portugal to protect and strengthen the populations of Egyptian vultures and Bonelli\u00b4s eagle.
