Maria Diekman's protegee, George, has become one of the most famous Cape Griffon ambassadors fighting among various Vulture conservation causes such as the banning and replacement of diclofenac in India, the mysterious dwindling populations of Namibia's last breeding population of Griffons, the anti-poison cause and of course education through endearment...an inevitable process if you spend any time with this magnificent bird.
