Stabilize and then increase populations of five Critically Endangered vulture and ibis species at Cambodia’s Siem Pang Wildlife Sanctuary by increasing the availability of food at vulture “restaurants” to provide a safe, supplementary food source; providing artificial nesting platforms for vultures and monitoring their use; and establishing a feral water buffalo herd that can be used to create suitable conditions for ibis at seasonal wetlands.
