IIPM Press Release :- Where do the dead go?

IIPM PUBLICATION
A drug once widely used for livestock, it stood banned ever since it inadvertently started taking a toll on the big birds. “More than 99 per cent of the vultures in the country have vanished. They are dying at the rate of 30 to 50 per cent annually. Functionally, they are extinct,” said Dr Jakati, Chief Wildlife Warden, Haryana and Vulture conservationist.

The damage has been done, and the remaining vultures are struggling to dispose off the body count that is piling up at an alarming rate. Some Parsis are left aghast at the decrepit condition of their late relatives, while the purists are demanding that this generation-old ritual not be done away. The tug of war has thrown up a strangely probable solution; massive solar reflectors that use the power of the sun to keep the lamp of tradition burning. But come monsoons, and the rain gods shower alternate plans. Between the devil and the deep blue sea, they face Hobson’s choice.
