Hi David,
               There is some suggestion that the Voltarin killing vultures
in India has been ingested from corpses,( it is a common and effective
anti-arthritic drug used in humans) which are usually left on open platforms
for disposal by vultures. The decimation (modern usage) of vultures
resulting from visceral gout causing renal failure has left thousands of
corpses uneaten and rotting, with secondary health problems.
                              Cheers
                                   Michael
