A staff outing to the Hawk Conservancy to make our latest donation to the International Vulture Program.

Regular visitors of the centre will be aware of the massive decline in old world vulture populations due to widespread poisoning, among other issues. Here at the Cotswold Falconry Centre, we have made efforts to breed these Critically Endangered Vultures (successfully breeding a Hooded Vulture this year already) with the goal of creating a solid captive population. We have also made donations via the Hawk Conservancy Trust, to the International Vulture Program, in order to provide funding for the creation of Poison Response kits and the training to be able to use them. We were fortunate enough to make our latest donation in person.
