Abstract
Vulture populations are experiencing rapid declines across the globe. While the declines have been most precipitous in Asia, recent reports suggest African populations are likewise imminently threatened. As the factors underlying these general population trends are multifaceted and will vary in their relative intensity spatially, it is imperative that monitoring data across different vulture populations is assimilated if targeted conservation action is to prove most effective. In this study, we highlight a medium-term decline in the African White-backed Vulture
Tout autour du globe, les populations de vautours connaissent un dรฉclin rapide. Alors que ce dรฉclin sโest prรฉcipitรฉ au sein des populations dโAsie, de rรฉcents rapports suggรจrent que les populations africaines sont au moins aussi menacรฉes ร court terme. Les facteurs qui influencent ces tendances dรฉmographiques gรฉnรฉrales ont plusieurs facettes et varient de maniรจre spatiale dans leur intensitรฉ relative. Par consรฉquent, il est impรฉratif de collecter et regrouper des donnรฉes de surveillance sur diffรฉrentes populations pour mettre en place des stratรฉgies de conservation efficaces et ciblรฉes. Dans cette รฉtude, je souligne le dรฉclin ร moyen terme dโune population de Vautour africain (
