Between 22 September and 9 January 2011, the Biodiversity Forum, a space for scientific and environmental dissemination of the Spanish National Research Council (CSIC) and the Biodiversity Foundation, will host this exhibition.
The exhibition “Images of a dream. Working for the Bearded Vulture”, which has been produced by the Gypaetus Foundation, brings together 30 photographs that describe the research and conservation work of this important species of vulture in different countries in Europe and Africa.
Continuously and in parallel to the photographs, several videos are also projected with unpublished images on the field breeding or “hacking” of the bearded vultures released this year by the Bearded Vulture Reintroduction Program of the Ministry of the Environment of the Junta de Andalucía in the Sierra de Castril Natural Park, Grenade.
This scavenger species, which disappeared from Andalusia in 1986, is in danger of extinction throughout Europe. Its reintroduction in this autonomous community aims precisely to restore the gene flow between the population of the Pyrenees and that located in North Africa.
The Biodiversity Forum is located in the Patio de Banderas, 16. Seville.
