Nine types of vulture can be tracked down living in India, however most are currently at risk for extinction[1] after a quick and significant populace breakdown in ongoing decades.[2] In the mid 1980s, three types of Gyps vultures (the white-supported vulture, the long-charged vulture and the slim charged vulture) had a joined assessed populace of 40 million in South Asia, yet starting at 2017, the absolute populace numbered just 19,000 (6,000, 12,000, and 1,000 separately), a lessening by around 95%.[3] A significant contributing component in declining populaces of vultures is accepted to be far reaching utilization of medications, for example, diclofenac, once generally utilized as a domesticated animals mitigating drug. Veterinary use of diclofenac has been prohibited in India since 2006.[4][5] The IUCN Red Data Book has recorded Gyps bengalensis as "fundamentally imperiled". In winter 2012, 56 vultures in three species (Eurasian griffon, cinereous vulture, Egyptian vulture) and 10 steppe falcons were observed dead at Jorbeer unloading site. Six Eurasian griffons were found dead in May 2013 because of lack of hydration and wing shortcoming. The region has been pronounced as a preserved timberland region, however the dead creature unloading site isn't important for the safeguarded region.
