Four Endangered Storks Found Dead in Assam

Four Endangered Storks Found Dead in Assam

Four rare and endangered Greater Adjutant Storks were found dead near a hospital in Assam, India.

These birds usually nest in tall trees around the hospital, which is a safe place for them.

Three birds fell from their nests and died on Friday, and another was found dead the next day.

The forest department is checking why the birds died.

People who care about the environment and local residents want a full investigation to protect these birds.

These storks are very big and used to live all over India and Southeast Asia, but now they are mostly found in Assam and a small area in Cambodia.

The forest department has put up signs and cameras to keep the birds safe.
