ALT a slightly blurry selfie of Lada and Cat with Emily and Anna of Egg fame (Egg is a comedy sketch duo), everyone has a big grin on their faces, everyone is holding each other around the shoulders and Cat is hugging Emily a little too tight but Emily is a great sport about it

Rupell’s Griffon Vulture is Critically Endangered. @OfficialZSL has been working to protect them for many years, lobbying successfully across S Asia for a ban on diclofenac, that kills them.

Just in time for Easter, the team @zsllondonzoo have helped a rare Rupell’s Griffon Vulture to hatch.
They are the world’s highest-flying birds, reaching > 10km (same as most ✈️).
They’re also important to the ecosystem - by feeding on carcasses, they help control disease
