Drug Banned in Asia Diclofenac Poisons Rare European Vultures

Apr 11, 2021 11:59 PM EDT (Photo : Karen Alchin) (Photo : Pixabay) After it was discovered that diclofenac killed vultures that consumed cattle carcasses treated with the drug, it was outlawed in India, Pakistan, Nepal, and Bangladesh. Hundreds of millions of vultures are thought to have died due to this, with some birds dwindling by 99.9% in areas of South Asia. Despite this, diclofenac was accepted in Spain and other European countries because producers, drug makers, and regulators claimed that cattle carcasses in Europe were handled differently than in India. Vultures will be unable to consume meat contaminated with diclofenac as a result of this.
