A research team from the Doñana Biological Station-CSIC and the Miguel Hernández University tracked griffon and cinereous vultures and white storks to study their flight patterns
These species mostly fly under 1,300 meters so the flight altitudes overlapped the legal flight altitude limit set for general aviation, which is 900 meters.

Population expansions of successful species have gained importance as a major conservation and management concern. The success of these ‘winners’ is widely attributed to their high adaptability and behavioural plasticity, which allow them to efficiently use opportunities provided by human-modified habitats. However, the individual components within populations is critical for a better understanding of the main ecological mechanisms related to the success of winning species. Here, the spatial...
