The Land of Griffons
On the Northwestern coast of Sardinia lives the last native Italian colony of griffon vultures (Gyps fulvus fulvus). Domenico Ruiu, an experienced photographer and conservationist, tells us about the dangers threatening the survival of the colony and about the work of the ‘Life Under Griffon Wings‘ project which is fighting to ensure a safe future for the colony.
