Home range variability and philopatry in Cinereous vultures (Aegypius monachus) breeding in Iberia
Avian Research, 2023 Large scavengers are strongly dependent on environmental conditions and carrion distribution and abundance, so season and breeding-related factors may influence the spatial ecology of species such as the Cinereous Vulture (Aegypius monachus), the largest

Livestock farming practices modulate vulture diet-disease interactions
Global Ecology and Conservation, 2019 Low- and high-intensity farming exert different direct and indirect effects on vulture populations by driving the availability, exploitation and characteristics of carrion.

Avian Oropharyngeal Trichomonosis: Treatment, Failures and Alternatives, a Systematic Review
Microorganisms, 2022 Oropharyngeal avian trichomonosis is a potentially lethal parasitic disease that affects several avian orders. This review is focused on the disease treatments since prophylactic treatment is prohibited in most countries and resistant strains are ...

Lead toxicosis of captive vultures: case description and responses to chelation therapy
BMC Veterinary Research, 2013 Background Lead, a serious threat for raptors, can hamper the success of their conservation. This study reports on experience with accidental lead intoxication and responses to chelation therapy in captive Cinereous (Aegypius monachus) and Egyptian ...

Application of central-place foraging theory shows the importance of Mediterranean dehesas for the conservation of the cinereous vulture, Aegypius monachus [PDF]
, 2013 The dehesa (oak woodland) is an extensive agro-pastoral ecosystem characteristic of the Western Mediterranean countries which is suffering a great transformation process since 1950.

Phylogeny Drives Carrion Consumption by Vertebrate Scavengers Towards Distantly Related Species
Ecology Letters, Volume 29, Issue 9, September 2026.Carrion is a highly nutritious resource that plays a key role in ecosystem functioning, but may pose pathogen risks, particularly between phylogenetically close carcass‐scavenger pairs. Using camera traps, we assessed how phylogenetic distance influenced scavenging in a Mediterranean wetland.

Survival Remains High in Griffon Vultures 40 Years After Reintroduction
Animal Conservation, Volume 29, Issue 3, Page 307-320, June 2026.The reintroduction of the Griffon vulture (Gyps fulvus) in French Grands Causses in 1981 is largely regarded as a significant translocation success. 40 years of quality data from intensive monitoring allows us to investigate the survival rates in this long‐lived population on the long term, but also to reflect on the crucial role of adaptive management
