| | IUCN Red List of Threatened Species: Gyps bengalensis |
 | | Gyps bengalensis occurs in Pakistan, India, Bangladesh, Nepal, Bhutan, Myanmar, Thailand, Laos, Cambodia and southern Vietnam, and is extinct in southern China and Malaysia. |
 | | By mid-2000, Gyps vultures were being found dead and dying in Nepal, Pakistan, and throughout India, and major declines and local extirpations were being reported. |
 | | Other suggested factors are changes in human consumption and processing of dead livestock, and poison and pesticide use, but these are only likely to be of minor significance. |
