BIRD HOSPITAL IN HORTOBÁGY
•The Foundation's goal is
primarily the veterinarian
treatment of protected birds
and their release to freedom
in nature following their
recovery.
•In addition to natural
damages and infections due
to human activities - such
as poisoning, damages on
highways, poaching, etc. -
many birds suffer injuries
from which they can be
saved under the proper
conditions.
BIRD HOSPITAL IN HORTOBÁGY
•Since 1991 the veterinarian
treatment of birds has been
covered by the bird repatriation
station operated by Hortobágy
National Park, where damaged and
ill protected and highly protected
birds arrive from all parts of the
country. Under the current
conditions, following the /primarily
operational/ veterinarian care,
follow-up care and full recovery,
some 40% of them are return to the
wild.
•The breeding, interior propagation
and storage of the single birds that
had suffered permanent damage
are also carried out at the site.
