Since the first successful nesting of bearded vulture (Gypaetus barbatus) in the Piedmont region, which took place in the Lanzo Valleys in the province of Turin during the 2018-2019 breeding season, with the fledging of the juvenile named “Belavrì” (W288), three other juveniles fledged in the following years at the same nesting site: “Maurich” (W365), “Chateaux” (W413) and “Eolo” (W490). Thus, the number of successful breedings in this area increased to 4 from the beginning of the international reintroduction project and we note the exceptional young age of the female during the first recorded breeding (4cy).

PlumX Metrics

PlumX Metrics provide insights into the ways people interact with individual pieces of research output (articles, conference proceedings, book chapters, and many more) in the online environment. Collectively known as PlumX Metrics, these metrics are divided into five categories to help make sense of the huge amounts of data involved and to enable analysis by comparing like with like.
