On 27.11.2021г. Green Balkans received  three Griffon Vulture as a donation.The donation is from the Dutch zoos  Dierenrijk and DierenPark Amersfoort, which for years have been supporting the activities for the restoration of large vultures in Bulgaria.

The Dutch Zoos are part of the European Association of Zoos and Aquariums (EASZA), which actively support  programs to restore rare species in the wild.

The birds will spend a period of quarantine in the Green Balkans’ Wildlife Rescue Center, after which will be placed in the aviary for adaptation in the „Sinite Kamani“ Nature Park.

We would like to take this opportunity to thank the Dierenrijk  Zoo and the DierenPark Amersfoort Zoo, as well as the Stichting Wildlife Foundation, which implements activities together with the zoos and also supports the activities for the protection of vultures in Bulgaria through donations. We are honored that the Dutch public has a vote of confidence in us and supports our activities.

Follow the fate of the birds on our site and „keep your fingers crossed“ that it will successfully adapt to life in the wild.
