Vultures play a critical role in our ecosystems by preventing the spread of diseases. Without them, carcasses rot, leading to an increase in pests and deadly pathogens that threaten human and animal health.

📢 Raise awareness. Take action. #SaveAfricasVultures

#Vultures, also known as the clean-up crew, play a significant role in keeping the environment safe for humans, livestock and wild animals.  They also provide various other #ecosystemservices. They do all this for free!

The Vulture Lead(Pb) Workshop in Zimbabwe is hosted by @Zimparks and @birdlifezim. Lead in carcasses shot with lead ammunition is poisoning carnivores and scavengers, such as vultures.

Lovelater Sebele, BirdLife Africa Senior Vulture Conservation Officer, participated in the #Vultures2023

She presented BirdLife's work on protecting vultures through Vulture Safe Zones. These areas provide safe feeding and roosting sites for vultures without risk of poisoning.
