Corrigendum

This is a corrigendum of the article Peshev et al. (2021). Due to a software malfunction during the data processing, the values in Table 4, columns 4-5 are incorrect. The correct values are given here in Table 1.

Correct values for Table 4, columns 4-5.

Vulture key zone/ Country	Area used by vutures, 50% core area, km²	Area used by vutures, 95% Home range, km²
Alpo - Adriatic, Austria/ Italy/ Croatia	144.45	3229.01
Western Serbia, Serbia	100.43	2356.42
Vrachanski Balkan Nature Park, Bulgaria	28.8	1197.21
Eastern Balkan Mountain, Bulgaria	13.76	626.3
Struma and Vardar Velleys, Bulgaria/ North Macedonia	107.3	3704.92
Eastern Rhodopes, Bulgaria/ Greece	236.54	4705.91
Western Greece, Greece	220.45	4387.11

The correct values must be taken in consideration also in the text, describing the results of Table 3 in the section "Defining vulture key zones in the Balkan Peninsula 1-7" and in the Abstract, where the sum of these values is included and is now corrected as follows: "The total home range 95% area of the Griffon Vulture population on the Balkans was estimated at 20,206.88 km² and the 50% core area at 851.73 km² (n = 48)."

In the section "Defining vulture key zones in the Balkan Peninsula" corrections were made in the numbers of tracked birds as follows: 3. Vrachanski Balkan Nature Park - corrected to "based on the location data of a total of 12 tracked birds.)"; 4. Eastern Balkan Mountain - corrected to "based on the location data of a total of 9 tracked birds)"; 6. Eastern Rhodopes - corrected to "(based on the location data of a total of 22 tracked birds)";
