Assam: Poisoned carcass kills 100 vultures in Kamrup; 11 rescued
A poisoned dead carcass caused the death of a hundred juvenile Himalayan griffon vultures and an eagle in Kamrup district on Thursday. Eleven more members of the ‘near threatened’ vulture species, which also fed on the carcass, are struggling for their lives. Vultures are the most common scavengers in the world.
