A sűrű köd miatt számos Szeged melletti Fehér-tavon éjszakázó daru pusztult el, miután légvezetéknek ütközött. A madarak ösztönüknek engedelmeskedve elindulnak táplálékot keresni, de a területet nagyfeszültségű vezetékek veszik körül. A hirtelen leereszkedő, rendkívül sűrű ködben elvesztetik a darvak a tájékozódási képességüket.
After fog
Due to the dense fog, several cranes sleeping on Lake Fehér near Szeged were killed after colliding with an overhead line. Listening to their instincts, the birds set out in search of food, but the area is surrounded by high-voltage wires. In a sudden descent of the extremely dense fog, they lose their ability of orientation.
In dense fog, visibility is so low that cranes flying at high speeds can’t get out of obstacles and collide with it.
József Puskás and Zoltán Kalán, the nature conservation guard of the Kiskunság National Park Directorate, are looking for a way to approach the area around the overhead lines, where the dead birds are expected to be found. In Hungary, if we take into account the minimum removal rate by carnivores, it is estimated that at least 30,000 birds can fall victim to electric shocks every year. Their nature conservation value exceeds one billion forints.
Samu, a specially trained poison and corpse-seeking dog, is used to collect the remains of dead animals. There are only three such dogs working in the country, two at the Hungarian Ornithological and Nature Conservation Association and one at the national park.
Samut was trained in the Pannon Eagle Life project. The survey and protection of globally endangered imperial eagles in Hungary is carried out by the Hungarian Ornithological and Nature Conservation Association, the national park directorates and several closely cooperating domestic and foreign organizations since 1974. To reduce poisoning significant actions are being taken in addition to Hungary, in Slovakia, the Czech Republic, Austria and Serbia. If necessary in addition to locating electrocuted animals, Samu is also deployed in those countries to protect imperial eagles.
Az életben maradt darut elszállítják a Szegedi Vadasparkba ott ápolják és figyelik.
A luckier bird collided with a wire fence in an outlying industrial park.
The surviving crane is being transported to the Szeged Zoo where it is being cared for and monitored.
A természetvédelmi őr arról mesél, hogy ilyenkor nem ritka, hogy a tányéron végzik a madarak.
Locals saw a car in which two dead cranes were thrown.
The conservation guard told us it is not uncommon for birds to end up on the plate.
Transporting the bird requires attention so that the animal won’t injure itself.
The healed bird regained its strength, care must be taken because it can cause serious wounds to its zookeepers with its beak.
A megszokott számkód helyett itt színkódot használnak ez is azt jelenti milyen kisszámban jelölik meg ezeket a madarakat.
Rings are placed on his feet because otherwise there is no possibility to do so.
Instead of the usual number code, a color code is used here, which means how low a number of these birds are marked.
At this point, several injured and then recovered birds will be released.
