Releasing the Bearded Vultures to the hacking cave © Hansruedi Weyrich There, the VCF’s scientific coordinator Franziska Lörcher put the GPS tags on them, that will allow for the close monitoring of their movements once they fledge, and the birds were left alone, with plenty of food for the next days. The time has come to release the Bearded VulturesĪ team then took the birds in wooden boxes mounted on rucksacks up the steep mountain trail to the hacking cave (approximately 6×20 m in size at 1300 m altitude), where they will spend the next 25 days or so before fledging. Hundreds of people welcomed the arrival of the birds that spent a few nights in Nuremberg zoo (a partner in the VCF coordinated Bearded Vulture Captive Breeding Network), including the Bavarian ministers of environment Thorsten Glauber, and of agriculture, Michaela Kaniber, as well as by the director of the National Park Roland Baier. Welcoming the guests and presenting the birds © VCF The two Bearded Vultures – both females – hatched in Spain at the Bearded Vulture Captive Breeding Centre of Guadalentín, managed by the VCF following an agreement with the Junta de Andalucía, and were named “Bavaria” and “Wally” by a local school and the readers of a national newspaper.

The Vulture Conservation Foundation (VCF) provided the two birds to this new release site, which will contribute to the Alpine reintroduction project. But little by little, the clouds cleared, and when the first guests arrived at the BNP’s information house in Ramsau, near the famous and picturesque Hintersee lake, there was full sunshine - a good omen for the event that followed up, and for the reintroduction of this species in Germany. During the day before, heavy thunderstorms and downpours drenched the region. The day dawned grey and misty, and you could see the tension and apprehension in the faces of our colleagues from the Bavarian Nature Conservation Association LBV and in the staff from BNP, who got up early to arrange the setup and all the logistics of the event. Preparing for the release took a lot of effort The 10th of June will be a milestone in German nature conservation as two Bearded Vultures were released into the wild in Berchtesgaden National Park (BNP), in the southwest corner of Bavaria, more than 140 years after their extinction in the country. While the announcement seems to suggest that this is in fact the conclusion of the anime series, there’s no telling if it will actually finish the story or not.Įither way, we’re likely to learn more about Attack on Titan Final Season Part 3 ahead of its release sometime next year.Presenting one of the Bearded Vultures © Hansruedi Weyrich We also don’t know for sure if this is the end of Attack on Titan or not. With just nine chapters worth of previous material in the story, it’s unclear how many episodes MAPPA plans to release with Attack on Titan Final Season Part 3. Which is why it’s not surprising that MAPPA seems likely to change a few beats from the source material in its own telling of the story.įinal Season has 28 episodes so far, in its first two parts, and made it to around chapter 130 of the manga. The ending proved controversial and is not as well-loved as most of the rest of the series. Why the Attack on Titan manga couldn’t escape controversy in the endĪttack on Titan’s original manga, which the anime is based on, ran for 139 chapters and came to a close in April 2021.
