Himalayan Griffon vulture (Gyps himalayensis)

It is the largest of the Gyps species, averaging larger in every method of measurement than its relatives, and is perhaps the largest and heaviest bird in the Himalayas.[4] Weight in Himalayan vultures ranges from 6 kg (13 lb)[9] to 12.5 kg (28 lb).[10] It has been estimated to weigh an average of 9 kg (20 lb), but weights vary with conditions from 8–12 kg (18–26 lb).[4][11][12] Published measurements of the wingspan vary from 2.56 to 3.1 m (8 ft 5 in to 10 ft 2 in), a similar range to that of cinereous vulture,[4][5] but the wingspan varies greatly depending on the method used to measure them.[13]
