Fox News
Fifteen Griffon vultures from Spain were released in Cyprus to replenish its population, which dropped to ten birds or less due to deliberate poisoning.
Cyprus’ Game and Fauna Service has attached GPS transmitters to all the vultures to monitor their movements and well-being. From previous releases of vultures elsewhere in Europe, it’s expected that the birds will intermingle with the remaining indigenous vulture population at feeding and roosting locations.
