GOO-MOREMI: Decades ago there were several thousands of vultures in Botswana.

Today a few thousand remain. In a continued effort to foster vulture conservation, Mascom through its staff-led Corporate Social Responsibility programme, 3-For-3 joined hands with the Botswana Meat Commission (BMC) last weekend to support Goo-Moremi Gorge in its efforts to reverse the declining vulture populations. This year’s initiative was held under the theme 'Pushing for Automation to Drive the Conservation of Vultures'.

Whilst there is no recent data on current vulture numbers, the last known survey in 2018 recorded only 274 birds in the area.
