Preliminary reports suggest that the bird may have collided with the cage while flying or succumbed to another cause, officials say. However, the exact reason will be determined only after the laboratory analysis of the samples, added Mr. Gupta.
World Fund for Nature (India) says that one of the greatest threats for this species is hunting. This is followed by occasional poaching out of protected areas, collisions with high voltage electrical cables, fast movement vehicles and free dogs in the villages.
