> Would you please pass this information to the TZ Birds Net Group. Corinne Kendall who is doing a study on vultures using GSM-GPS units has a last reading for a Lappet on 4th September in the Serengeti at the following location 34.32314046224 -2.1670397440592

> Either the unit has failed or the bird maybe dead or just out of range. We would like to confirm. We would appreciate it if anyone in the Serengeti would check up this area and perhaps look for a unit, or any evidence.
