The GIB, the state bird of Rajasthan, was hunted down on the Link Road to the Sam sand dunes near Barna village on December 20 noon. The area is called Sudasari and forms a part of the Desert National park

 The hunters, who had killed a Great Indian Bustard (GIB) near here on last Thursday, had actually trained their guns on two birds. However, one managed to fly away.
