3 griffon vultures and 1 fox dead close to a sheep carcass. In all likelihood, this is yet another case of wildlife poisoning, the first detected in 2024 in the Central Apennines.

The griffon vulture is an iconic and ecologically important species in the Central Apennines of Italy. Aided by new funding, the local rewilding team are working hard to support population growth.

During this autumn, the monitoring of the Griffon vultures’ population in the Central Apennines is going on

Rewilding Apennines is looking for a part-time Vulture Field Officer to monitor griffon vultures in Central Apennines!
