Until then, visit to the Rescue Centre and Griffon Vultures IS NOT POSSIBLE.

Koleda and Dado joined Pepina

16.05.2013.

As we have signed a contract about long-term cooperation with Split ZOO-garden, and after the decision made by the Ministry of Environment and Nature Protection, on 14 May 2013, employees of Split ZOO took Koleda and Dado. By arriving to Split, the ZOO’s veterinary dr. Miljenko Milanović informed us that they arrived safely, and that local female came to “take a look”, while our Pepina was not very “impressed” about the fact that his friends from Island of Cres just arrived. But for sure they will have much more fun as they are all four together, at the end Griffon vulture is social species which lives in colonies.

Sixth Griffon released back to nature

08.05.2013.

On 8 May 2013 we released our Gof back into the nature! Gof came to our Rescue centre last year in June, after we had found him near the sea. He was one of the strongest Griffons we ever had: after rescuing his weight was more than 8.000g, three months later 8.900 g, and just before releasing 9.300 g . Rehabilitation was obviously successful, and Gof’s first wing’s flaps were strong, so it was really fast how he reached the height.

Fifth Griffon released back to nature

On 28 March 2013 our Leja was flying again! We have rescued Leja last year in June, and she was poisoned. Rehabilitation was successful, but during Autum she has to operated in Falcon’s centre in Šibenik, because of bumblefoot on her left foot. Operation was exceptionaly well done, there is no wound any more and Leja’s first flight after nine months was marvelous!
