Vrae wat reisigers vra

’n Waarneming beteken dat ’n gasheer die White-headed Vulture op die eiendom of naby gesien het. Dit waarborg nooit dat jy dit sal sien nie.

Which parks and reserves are best for the White-headed Vulture in South Africa?

Hosts on Spekboom have recorded the White-headed Vulture at stays in or beside Kruger National Park, Kgalagadi Transfrontier Park, Hluhluwe-Imfolozi Park, Mapungubwe National Park and iSimangaliso Wetland Park.
