There should be a new waterfowl breeding center in Belgium. A friend of mine was recenlty at a conference where there was a lecture about this center.
What I know is that this facility was built recently. Their focus would be mainly on marine duck species. I was wondering if others here might know more about it?
I spoke to that friend today. He told me the facility would have been set up by the previous owner of Weltvogelpark Walsrode and is managed by a Dutch aviculturist. The collection would consist of around 40 species.
On Jonas Livet's website, only 2 breedings centers are listed in Belgium : - Herne Breeding Center, with a few pics of waterfowls : Les Zoos dans le Monde - Herne Breeding Center (P) - Cracid Breeding and Conservation Centre : Les Zoos dans le Monde - Cracid Breeding and Conservation Centre (CBCC) (P) If you find more infos about it, I would be interested too
Google Translate translates the words for Augur buzzard in French into the Auspicious buzzard in English
That's an interesting site, thank you for sharing! I was unaware of the first breeding center. If I find more information about it I will share it here, I hope you will do as well
The breeding center is named ‘Passchendaele Waterfowl Breeding Center’. They would currently be working on a website. Hopefully more information will come here soon.
