In contemplation for survival

Thought process behind the struggle to survive and thrive. It gives me an impression as if its urging us humans not to use Diclofenac. Well, Diclofenac is an anti-inflammatory cattle drug which is acting as a "slow poison" on these majestic species. When these feed on the dead caracass of cattle ( or any wild animal ) that was treated with diclofenac, the drug hits the blood stream of the Vultures thus pushing them to the brink of extinction. Read more about this here in an article by The Guardian. Its only when the ignorance of the people is identified and realised not to use diclofenac that these species of Vultures can survive for the next generation :(.
