Hello all:

Please see message below from Dr Wagner about locating a dead wing-tagged 
vulture at Shompole. Chances are that the bird (along with other non-tagged 
vultures) may have succumbed to poisoning. As the dry season sets in, it is 
likely that more dead vultures will be found. Please be on the look out.

Thanks,

Munir Virani
