Spatial, social, and environmental factors influencing natal dispersal in the colonial griffon vulture

Natal dispersal is a critical trait for individual fitness and the viability, structure, and genetic identity of populations. However, there is a pronounced information gap for large and long-lived species due to the difficulty of monitoring individuals at appropriate spatio-temporal scales. Here we...

However, there is a pronounced information gap for large and long-lived species due to the difficulty of monitoring individuals at appropriate spatio-temporal scales. Here we study how individual traits and social and environmental characteristics influence natal dispersal decisions of griffon vultures (Gyps fulvus) using long-term (30 years) monitoring of a large number of individuals marked as nestlings in Spain. Our results show a strong philopatry in both sexes, with some individuals recruiting as breeders on the same cliffs, and even the same nests, where they were born.This philopatric tendency was modulated by the effect of conspecific density on individual parameters and emphasized the importance of conspecific attraction and changes in food availability that may have influenced the increment in colony size and the colonization of new areas. Although further research is needed considering smaller colonies and more isolated population nuclei, our results highlight the importance of long-term studies on long-lived species to understand the factors that determine their population dynamics and their relationship with anthropogenic activities, whose effects should be predicted and managed using conservation criteria.Ministerio de Ciencia e Innovación (España); CSIC - Museo Nacional de Ciencias Naturales (MNCN); Consejo Superior de Investigaciones Científicas (España); Universidad Rey Juan Carlos; Universidad Pablo de Olavide; Junta de Castilla y León; CSIC - Estación Biológica de Doñana (EBD)Oxford University PressMinisterio de Ciencia e Innovación (España)2026202620252026info:eu-repo/semantics/articlePublisher's versioninfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionhttp://hdl.handle.net/10261/431081reponame:DIGITAL.CSIC.

description Natal dispersal is a critical trait for individual fitness and the viability, structure, and genetic identity of populations. However, there is a pronounced information gap for large and long-lived species due to the difficulty of monitoring individuals at appropriate spatio-temporal scales. Here we study how individual traits and social and environmental characteristics influence natal dispersal decisions of griffon vultures (Gyps fulvus) using long-term (30 years) monitoring of a large number of individuals marked as nestlings in Spain. Our results show a strong philopatry in both sexes, with some individuals recruiting as breeders on the same cliffs, and even the same nests, where they were born.This philopatric tendency was modulated by the effect of conspecific density on individual parameters and emphasized the importance of conspecific attraction and changes in food availability that may have influenced the increment in colony size and the colonization of new areas. Although further research is needed considering smaller colonies and more isolated population nuclei, our results highlight the importance of long-term studies on long-lived species to understand the factors that determine their population dynamics and their relationship with anthropogenic activities, whose effects should be predicted and managed using conservation criteria.
