The griffons of Cres
The island of Cres, together with Krk and the neighbouring island of Prvic, is the last natural habitat of griffon vultures in Croatia. It is cared for by a centre located in Beli and managed by ‘Priroda’, a public institution based in Rijeka, which is responsible for preserving the natural environment and is also supported in this by European funds
