Profile

A king of the birds, appearing in the Indian epic “Ramayana”. He takes the form of a vulture and was said to have lived for over 6,000 years. Although he is the son of Arna, brother of Garuda, another king of the birds, he is also sometimes considered the son of Garuda himself.

In the “Ramayana”, he forms a friendship with King Rama, an incarnation of the supreme Hindu deity Vishnu, and promised to protect Rama’s queen, Sita. However, Sita was kidnapped by Ravana, king of the Rakshasas and an enemy of Rama. Jatayu set out alone to save Sita, but had his wings cut off by a sword and was mortally wounded. He died in Rama’s arms.
