Onde ver o Cape Vulture na África do Sul

Hosts on Spekboom have recorded the Cape Vulture at stays in or beside uKhahlamba-Drakensberg Park, Kruger National Park, De Hoop Nature Reserve, Marakele National Park, Giants Castle Game Reserve and Hluhluwe-Imfolozi Park and other reserves. A record means a host has seen it on the property or nearby, which makes these the places to base yourself; it is never a guarantee of a sighting on any given day.

The Cape Vulture is most recorded in KwaZulu-Natal (24% of records), Western Cape (17% of records), Limpopo (15% of records), based on 1,179 iNaturalist observations. 38 places to stay on Spekboom in South Africa have recorded the Cape Vulture on site or nearby.

The Cape Vulture is recorded throughout the year, so no month is the wrong month to look for it. For the parks where hosts record it most, these are the best seasons they give. uKhahlamba-Drakensberg Park: year-round, dry season May-Sep; Kruger National Park: Apr-Sep; De Hoop Nature Reserve: Sep-Apr, flowers Aug-Oct; Marakele National Park: May-Sep, dry season. In the dry months animals concentrate at water and the grass is short.

The Cape Vulture (Gyps coprotheres) is listed as Vulnerable on the IUCN Red List.
