As regular CFZ-watchers will know, for some time Corinna has been doing a column for Animals & Men and a regular segment on On The Track... particularly about out-of-place birds and rare vagrants.

Bird conservation: Learning about vultures and how to protect them

The event was held at the Lahore Zoo. It included screening of a 40-minute documentary titled Missing Vultures. The documentary was produced by Ali Ejaz and funded by the WWF.
