🦅 A 2025 enrichment study showing that introducing stimuli like carcasses and mirrors lowers repetitive stress behaviours and boosts natural social and locomotive activity—a win for welfare and natural behaviour in zoo care (Smith et al.,2025). 👉

🦅 A 2023 study decoding faecal hormone patterns to track reproduction in cinereous vultures revealing how oestrogen and progestogen rise before egg-laying, while stress-linked glucocorticoids peak in winter (Kozlowski et al., 2023). 👉

Today, on International Vulture Awareness Day we celebrate the unsung guardians of our ecosystems: vultures! 🦅 At JZAR, we’re proud to spotlight two crucial research studies advancing conservation through science!
