More About Vultures ...
|
"Vultures are scavenging birds, feeding mostly from carcasses of dead animals. Vultures are found in almost every continent".
A particular characteristic of many vultures is a bald head, devoid of feathers. This is likely because a feathered head would become spattered with blood and other fluids, and thus be difficult to keep clean.
