The Bearded and the Cinereous vultures are globally near-threatened species and are listed under the “Extinct” category in the Red Data Book of Bulgaria. Thanks to continuous conservation initiatives the Cinereous vulture has already started its return to the Bulgarian lands. Thanks to long-standing conservation initiatives, the black vulture has already begun its return to Bulgarian lands.
Building on our achievements so far, the Bearded Vulture LIFE project aims to restore the species in Bulgaria and on the Balkans and to support the successfully restored Cinereous vulture population in the country.
