Conservation Story - History & Background
SAVE is involved in a wide range of conservation activities across South Asia including:
- breeding vultures in captivity so that their offspring can be released back in to the wild when the environment is free from diclofenac
- an active advocacy programme targeting the vets and farmers using diclofenac
- legislation controlling the manufacture and sale of veterinary drugs
- in-situ conservation actions focused around the small but key remaining vulture populations in the wild
- an active research programme that underpins these activities and monitors their effectiveness
