    Edit Photo Details Cape Griffon Vulture Chick   #endangered #ornithology #south_africa #eyes_yellow #jlewis #beak_black
    The Cape Griffon Vulture Chick which was hatched March 4 is a boy. Although its parents are in the exhibit, it is being raised by foster dad Kwa (green band) and foster mom Sefara (orange band). In the last 4 years, there have been 4 successful Cape Griffon hatched in the North American Region and all four have come from this exhibit. Our dynamic pair is foster rearing to help introduce new genetics into the population. Info from Saint Augustine Alligator Farm. This bird is in captivity.
