Maybe someone can look for it since I’m being lazy, but I coulda sworn I saw a piece around a decade ago about how sky burials were falling out of fashion in India/Nepal and it was impacting the vulture populations that partially depended on dead humans as a food source. Now I’m wondering if the issue was sky burials in decline or if it was poison in cattle – or both.
