But it would make more sense if they met in the marshlands of Kutch and surrounding areas, which have become a graveyard of some of the most endangered winged species in the country - flamingos.<br /> <br /> Conservation activists have uncovered a major incident of poaching of lesser flamingos in the Little Rann of Kutch.<br /> <br /> Last week, activist D V Girish of Bhadra Wildlife Conservation Trust of Bangalore was shocked when he found a large heap of white feathers in the wasteland near Velasar village in Maliya Miyana taluka in Rajkot.<br /> <br /> On closer inspection, he found 33 severed heads and legs of lesser flamingos. The torsos were missing, indicating that they had been killed for meat.<br /> <br /> The birds may have been trapped and then killed. The lesser flamingos are local migratory birds that flock to the region during winter months from the southern part of the country. Despite being the most populous species of flamingo, it is notified as near-threatened due to its declining population and depleting breeding sites.<br /> <br /> &quot;I fear that this is not an isolated incident,&quot; Girish told TOI.<br /> <br /> &quot;There is hardly any presence of the forest department officials in the region. We brought the incident to the notice of numerous officials, but no one was willing to own up jurisdiction. I fear some fishermen or an organized gang might have had a big feast.&quot;<br /> <br /> Local forest officials say locals in the region often feast on flamingo meat. Even when TOI tried to contact forest officials, everyone passed the buck.

Flamingos slaughtered for meat in Kutch |
-The Times of India
Wildlife experts and enthusiasts from around the world will congregate in the air-conditioned environs of Mahatma Mandir in Gandhinagar as part of the Global Bird Watcher's Conference on January 19. But it would make more sense if they met in the marshlands of Kutch and surrounding areas, which have become a graveyard of some of the most endangered winged species in the country - flamingos. Conservation activists have uncovered a major incident of poaching of lesser flamingos in the Little Rann of Kutch. Last week, activist D V Girish of Bhadra Wildlife Conservation Trust of Bangalore was shocked when he found a large heap of white feathers in the wasteland near Velasar village in Maliya Miyana taluka in Rajkot. On closer inspection, he found 33 severed heads and legs of lesser flamingos. The torsos were missing, indicating that they had been killed for meat. The birds may have been trapped and then killed. The lesser flamingos are local migratory birds that flock to the region during winter months from the southern part of the country. Despite being the most populous species of flamingo, it is notified as near-threatened due to its declining population and depleting breeding sites. "I fear that this is not an isolated incident," Girish told TOI. "There is hardly any presence of the forest department officials in the region. We brought the incident to the notice of numerous officials, but no one was willing to own up jurisdiction. I fear some fishermen or an organized gang might have had a big feast." Local forest officials say locals in the region often feast on flamingo meat. Even when TOI tried to contact forest officials, everyone passed the buck.

Local-level officials might be aware, but we will definitely now inquire into the incident." Last month, TOI had reported deaths of nearly 400 greater flamingos due to electrocution caused by a newly-laid high-tension power transmission line in the Greater Rann of Kutch. |
