Vulture 's lifestyle of scavenging is important for habitats to operate safely and keep them free of  infectious diseases. Vultures have an extremely "corrosive acid" in the stomach, that enable hem to feed on rotting corpses of animals. Sometimes such scavenge leftovers contain harmful elements such as   botulinum, anthrax, & rabies  which will destroy many animals; however for vultures they are harmless due to the stomach acid. Hence, vulture keep our habitat/ecosystem  clean and free from diseases 

Explanation:

Some of the reasons why vultures are slowly becoming extinct in India are

  • Electrocution from "overhead electricity wires" is a reason, since due to its "large size and wing span" there are higher chances of the bird getting electrocute while flying
  • The food deficit is another explanation for the decrease in the vulture community. The central govt. ordered villagers to bury dead animal carcasses  to maintain clean villages. While the initiative is fine, the shortage of animal carcasses causes the vultures to starve & without food
  • The usage of chemical named "Diclofenac" in a drug which is administered to animals can cause vultures to die. This happens when the vultures eat the "carcasses of the animals" who are given this drug,
  • Several farmers spray livestock carcasses with pesticides such as Organo-phosphorous &  Organo-chlorine so as to avoid them from dispersing  foul odor. These pesticides infest carcass which can be eaten by vultures, thereby resulting in its death.
  • Some vulture species like to nest on "coconut trees". However the vultures lose their home when these trees are cut off. A few trees could also wither away because of the "vulture droppings" on these trees, hence they are often cut, although they are quite healthy..
