Vultures are Africa’s cleanup crew, and they are vanishing. In this episode of Robin’s Nest, Dr. Robin Ganzert talks with Kerri Wolter, founder and CEO of VulPro, South Africa’s leading vulture conservation organization. Kerri left a career in banking to spend two decades pulling poisoned vultures back from the edge.
Kerri explains why vultures matter to human health as much as wildlife, since they stop the spread of anthrax, botulism and rabies. She shares how VulPro breeds permanently injured birds that can never fly free, then releases their offspring into historical ranges. She also describes the upstream work: modifying deadly powerlines, investigating poisonings, tracking birds and helping drive restrictions on the toxic drug diclofenac.
Kerri was also a finalist for Global Humane Society’s Kiessling Prize. She shares what the recognition means to her and how she would use it to protect the Great Karoo’s “silent sky,” from a new satellite rescue facility to safe feeding sites for vultures.
