Remembering Tesla

A year ago, on April 11, 2017, signal from the GPS transmitter of white stork Tesla, during his spring migration on his way to Čigoč, a European Storks Village in Croatia, stopped forever. Tesla was shot a week earlier, on April 4, 2017 at about 4 pm in Bzal, Lebanon, by a poacher. We hope that Tesla will be among the last victims of illegal hunting and that all migratory birds will have a free and safe flyway on their routs. We bring you a story about Tesla.
