A wildlife team in
Kenya’s Ol Kinyei
Conservancy tends to
critically endangered
Rüppell’s and white-
backed vultures that
may have fed on a poi-
soned hyena. Two were
saved. It’s illegal, but
some herders use pes-
ticides to kill animals
that prey on livestock.
Other animals that eat
poisoned vultures, such
as jackals, also may die
in a toxic chain reaction.
