提出了进步的秃鹰保护对爱知目标1、8、12、14和20通过保护濒危秃鹫在印度。在这种保护计划,正在采取一系列举措保护秃鹰和它们的栖息地,包括:使用秃鹰作为旗舰物种价值的意识教育,促进生物多样性(内在和人类)(目标1);剖析秃鹫在养分循环的重要作用和污染控制目标(8);秃鹰物种的保护即将灭绝的危险(12)目标;维护关键生态系统提供的服务健康的秃鹰的数量(14)目标;力拓(Rio Tinto)和与企业合作,开发和实现业务用例支持秃鹰保护目标(20)。秃鹰是至关重要的各生态系统食物链的一部分。通过删除死肉,他们保持一个平衡的生态系统,防止疾病的传播。戏剧性的崩溃在印度秃鹰数量直接与畜牧业的做法,即使用止痛药,diclophenac治疗牛。今天几乎99%的秃鹰的数量在印度已经消失。 Conservative estimates show that stray dog numbers have increased by 7 million between 1992 and 2003 despite sterilisation programmes in India. During this same period, vulture numbers declined from 10 million down to 0.1 million. From 1982-1987, when vulture populations were relatively stable, so was the population of stray dogs. A calculation of the available food freed up by the vulture decline is consistent with the amount of food required by approximately 7 million dogs. In the last four years, it is recorded that diclophenac selling reduced from 49% to 25% because of awareness meetings. The vulture population is also reported by Government of Madhya Pradesh stabilised in last two decades.
