- The restaurant has been set up in Koderma district.
- It aims to conserve the fast-dwindling population of the bird species due to rampant use of drugs in livestock.
- It will begin functioning once the protocol for goshalas (cow shelter) and municipalities for providing diclofenac-free animal carcasses is ready.
- Carcasses of livestock from the goshalas and municipalities will be served as food to the scavenger birds at the 'vulture restaurant', a demarcated feeding site.
- The Koderma 'vulture restaurant' has been established at Gumo under Tilaiya Nagar Parishad as it is considered to be a feeding site for the birds.
- In Koderma, vultures were not seen for almost two decades.
- They were sighted again in the region since 2019.
