About These Birds
Eurasian Eagle-Owl
世界最大のフクロウで、4km先まで届く鳴き声と鋭い視力を持つ。ユーラシア全域に生息する頂点捕食者。
シロエリハゲワシ
The griffon vulture is one of Europe's largest flying birds and a crucial scavenger in Mediterranean ecosystems. These social birds nest in large cliff colonies and can soar for hours using thermals without flapping. Vulture populations faced a crisis from the veterinary drug diclofenac, which proved fatal when consumed through contaminated carcasses.
