Ramadevarabetta Vulture Sanctuary
Ramadevarabetta Vulture Sanctuary in Ramanagara, Karnataka, is India’s first and only vulture sanctuary, established in 2012 to protect endangered vulture species. It covers an area of about 3.46 square kilometers within the Ramadevarabetta hill range. The sanctuary is home to three of the nine vulture species found in India: the Indian Long-Billed Vulture, Egyptian Vulture, and White-Backed Vulture.
The population of these vultures has sharply declined due to poisoning from the veterinary drug diclofenac, prompting conservation efforts including the establishment of a vulture breeding center. The area was declared an eco-sensitive zone in 2018 to protect the sanctuary from industrialization and mining.
Besides vultures, the sanctuary harbors rich biodiversity including various birds, bats, butterflies, and reptiles, making it an important site for wildlife conservation and trekking.
