In 2015 two eggs from two different nest sites were extracted, and raised. Together with the only adult in captivity &#8211; a confiscated bird, they have established the first nucleus of a future captive breeding programme.<\/p>\n<p> In 2016, no clutches could be removed from the wild, but our South African colleagues are now establishing the terms of reference and guidelines for the establishment of a captive breeding programme. Consequently, it was decided to create a Steering Committee to supervise and support and advise the captive-breeding programme.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n<p> In early April, a number of experts and conservation managers met at the African bird of Prey Sanctuary in South Africa with the VCF to draft the Terms of Reference of this steering committee.
