Gänsegeier in Sardinien - Cloned

Auswilderung der beiden Gänsegeier Jana und Tempestosa in Sardinien (c) LIFE Under Griffon Wings

Im Rahmen eines europäischen LIFE Projektes (LIFE Under Griffon Wings) wird Sardiniens kleine Population von Gänsegeiern mit verschiedenen Schutzmassnahmen gestärkt. Dabei helfen auch kleine Satellitensender, mit denen einzelne Gänsegeier markiert werden sollen.

Um dies fach- und tiergerecht zu realisieren haben Experten der Stiftung Pro Bartgeier bei dieser Aktion mitgeholfen und das Knowhow, das im Rahmen des Wiederansiedlungsprojekts in der Schweiz entwickelt wurde, den sardischen Kollegen weitergegeben. So können nun auch die Streifzüge der Gänsegeier Jana und Tempestosa online mitverfolgt werden.
