Re: [KENYABIRDSNET] Fw: recovered vulture
tags
Hi Munir,
Do you have the tagging information? Species, age, place, date,
name of tagger, etc. Also the date of finding?
Cheers,
Graeme Backhurst

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
