Vulture mounted with camera, transmitter spotted in Chhattisgarh’s Maoist-affected Kanker



The locals spotted the vulture at the office of the electricity board at Bhanupratapur and someone alerted the forest department.“Catching sight of a vulture with an attached electronic gadget or camera for the first time, and venturing into such a sensitive area to witness an armed conflict between the forces and the Maoists created much curiosity and some disquiet. Initially, the speculations were rife that the vulture was used for some surveillance or spying”, said Vijay Pandey, a senior journalist based in Kanker.Meanwhile, after coming through a long flight the vulture has a tendency to stay in some particular place for 2-3 nights and get some rest before continuing its flight. The bird owing to its scavenger habit has been given some non-vegetarian meal by our team that is on alert and keeping a close watch, said the Kanker DFO.The vulture had some nesting sites at Kutumsar caves in Indravati national park in Bastar region, so the wildlife experts also believe the bird might possibly proceed to that area.
