The Egyptian vulture is the smallest vulture in Europe, and it is classified as &#8220;Endangered&#8221; \u2013 in Europe its populations have declined by 50% over the last 40 years.<\/p>\n<p> The project includes equipping electric lines against electrocution, several actions that aim to minimize the threat of illegal poisoning, targeted management of over 1,000 hectares of important habitats for the species and also the creation of a network of supplementary feeding stations.<\/p>\n<p> The project is implemented by the VCF and partners, including SPEA (BirdLife in Portugal), ATN and Palombar (regional conservation organisations in NE Portugal), the Junta de Castilla y Leon &amp; the Fundaci\u00f3n Patrimonio Natural de Castilla Y Le\u00f3n, the Portuguese electricity distributor EDP-D, the Portuguese statutory conservation agency ICNF and the Portuguese environmental police force (GNR), and is co-funded by the MAVA Foundation.<\/p>\n<div id='gallery-2' class='gallery
