TheWildlife Observatory<\/strong> was established at the former Tumbarino Prison Branch with the rehabilitation of several buildings in the small hamlet. The intervention made it possible to house the visitor center and wildlife observatory. Exhibition and multimedia areas have been built in the rooms, which were formerly used as prison living quarters: a green classroom for educational activities, the wildlife and ornithological center, and the laboratory for ringing activities.<\/span><\/p>\n

The establishment of a Wildlife Observatory within Asinara National Park contributes to the overall program of protection of natural habitats, ecosystems and in particular to the preservation of endangered animal species.<\/span><\/p>\n

The main objectives of the Wildlife Observatory are: scientific research, with a focus on all wildlife species, whether invertebrates and vertebrates (mouflon, hares and avifauna in general, equids, etc.); studies of the interrelationships and impact of allochthonous species (wild boar\/domestic pig, feral cat, goats and magpie) on the local fauna (herpet, avi and mammal fauna) for the restoration of the faunal balance, with the main purpose of defending the animal biodiversity of the Island.<\/span><\/p>\n

For the Environmental Education and Information System, Tumbarino is a training and educational hub on the environment that contributes to the cultural training of young people and the promotion of proactive synergies for interchange among researchers.<\/span><\/p>\n

The Wildlife Observatory has already activated collaborations with Departments, University Institutes, Associations and Territorial Bodies that specifically take care of activities and research in the field of conservation of environmental resources.<\/span><\/p>\n

The current activities of the observatory are:<\/span><\/p>\n

Ringing of birds for scientific purposes<\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

Ringing is a technique that involves the individual marking of birds by placing a small metal ring on the leg, bearing a unique alpha-numeric code that allows the individual to be recognized should it be recaptured. There has been an active ringing station at the Wildlife Observatory since 1997. <\/span><\/p>\n

Ringing activities during the year are as follows:<\/span><\/p>\n
