It is more white-backed than white-rumped. It is critically endangered with a rapidly declining population (from several million in the 1980s to less than 10,000 by 2016) through habitat loss and from eating poisoned wildlife carcasses and livestock carcasses with vetinary medications such as diclofenac (causes kidney failure in the birds).
