Wonderful news!

For the first time in over 30 years, Cape Vultures have been spotted in a region just 40km outside Mountain Zebra National Park, near Wapadsberg. A sight unseen for decades, this moment is a testament to the incredible conservation efforts of our entire Vulpro team. With only 4,500 – 4,800 breeding pairs left in South Africa, every vulture counts. These misunderstood heroes play a vital role in the ecosystem, preventing disease outbreaks and keeping nature in balance. However, they face devastating declines due to poisoning, habitat loss, and negative public perception. A world without vultures would have severe ecological and health consequences. Help us to rewrite their story — recognise them as crucial ecological guardians and inspire meaningful conservation.
