The search for an answer
Research has underpinned the vulture conservation programme from the very beginning.
The first evidence of declines was from Keoladia National Park, India. Surveys and monitoring established that declines were occurring at a national and international scale, and triggered a four-year investigation into the cause of the declines.
Theories
It has been proposed that the decline in vultures is due to the increase in feral dogs. However, vultures and dogs always coexisted.
SAVE
We co-ordinate recovery efforts across vulture range countries around the world, provide scientific and other advice, and help with publicity and fund-raising.
