Population Assessment in 2011
The vulture species survey was carried out throughout Pakistan in the breeding season from November 2010 to April 2011. A total of 457 Egyptian vultures, 167 Eurasian Griffon, 43 White-backed vultures, 3 King/Black vultures, 7 Cinereous vultures, 55 Long-billed vultures and 89 Himalayan Griffon were observed across 77 sites in Pakistan.

Nagar Parkar in the province of Sindh remains the last stronghold of the two critically endangered species. The Long-billed vulture was only found in Sindh with 172 active nests. Albeit the White-backed has been found in Sindh and Punjab, active nests are restricted only to Sindh.
