Endangered Vultures
The two- day statewide (Gujarat) census on vultures, carried out in May 2007 through direct sighting system, has come up with some alarming findings. According to forest officials, in some segments like Junagadh, Banaskanda and Kutch districts, the vulture
population has come down to half of the previous census figure of 2002, while some species have disappeared altogether.
