Explanation:

Recently, seven rare vulture species have been spotted in Jaisalmer’s Pokhran sub-division this winter season.

Vultures maintain ecological balance by eating dead animals. The arrival of the migratory birds is considered a good ecological sign. Bird lovers, wildlife conservators, environment enthusiasts, and local villagers have therefore expressed happiness about the arrival of the birds. The forest department has increased patrolling in order to ensure the security of these birds.

Vultures have many biological adaptations that make them well-suited to be scavengers.

Many vultures are also bald, meaning they have no feathers on their head.

This prevents bits of carrion, which can carry toxic bacteria, from sticking to feathers and infecting the bird.
