Solution
The number of vultures is rapidly decreasing in India. Vultures are the scavengers in nature. Two species of vultures, ‘Long billed Vultures’ and ‘White back Vultures’, are observed in the region around Raigad. Premsagar Mestri and his associates are working for increasing their numbers and to make available safe food for them through ‘Society for Eco Endangered Species Conservation and Protection-SEESCAP’, a non-governmental organisation. Painkillers (a drug called diclophenac) given to animals have proved to be toxic for vultures. Besides, dearth of trees with adequate height, scarcity of food, have also caused the decrease in the vulture population. People working for SEESCAP are gradually getting success in changing these circumstances.
