A long-billed vulture, J132, released in Maharashtra's Pench Tiger Reserve, has travelled nearly 750 km in 17 days, reaching close to Anjaneri hills near Trimbakeshwar in Nashik district. The vulture's journey is part of a conservation program by the state forest department and the Bombay Natural History Society (BNHS).
A 9-seater sea-plane of Maritime Energy Heli Air Services (MEHAIR) landed successfully in Gangapur dam near Nashik, thirty-five minutes after taking off from Juhu in Mumbai.
