Asia Insight - Eyes on the Sky: Vulture Man of Phucket

Photographer Rat Puanrak runs a feeding site on Thailand's Phuket Island that has become a sanctuary for migrating Himalayan Vultures. These imposing birds of prey face the threat of extinction from dwindling food supplies and agricultural chemicals. In this program, we follow the tireless efforts of Rat - and his widening support network of researchers, veterinarians and volunteers - as they work to protect an endangered species.
