This may be a useful tidbit of information, though since it conflicts with part of the article I'm not sure how to integrate it: "only remaining colony of griffon vultures is on [Akrotiri] base." [1] 66.27.233.203 16:13, 3 October 2006 (UTC)
Could we have some information on the various subspecies please? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 87.192.112.144 (talk) 13:40, 10 September 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Rüppell's Vulture
Is there a good reason for including Rüppell's Vulture in this article? It has an article of its own, which includes everything mentioned here. My feeling is that the most we might need here is a link to the other species – or if this bit is relevant to all Griffon-type vultures it could go in Gyps.--Richard New Forest 11:23, 16 October 2007 (UTC)
- I think it was formerly lumped with Griffon, not needed here, Jimfbleak 16:44, 16 October 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Distribution in Britain
I have seen mention of this species as a possible former inhabitant of Britain. Is there any evidence for this, such as archaeological finds or ancient records? Apparently there were Old English names for vulture, though this does not of course prove they did occur in Britain at that time (see this very interesting page: [2] – also [3]).--Richard New Forest 11:23, 16 October 2007 (UTC)
