This is hilarious. Guy in the US rescues several vultures. At some point, they fly off, come back a few weeks later, fly off again. People in the area get to know them as "his" vultures.
Then he gets a call from a local funeral home: hey, your vultures are hanging out on our roof, come get them, it freaks out some mourners.

Mit diesem Rabengeier / Black Vulture wünsche ich euch eine gute Nacht.
Er gehörte zu einer Gruppe von Geiern die ein totes Gürteltier am fressen waren.
Das Gürteltier wurde vermutlich durch Hunde getötet. Hunde sind einer sehr große Bedrohung für die Säugetiere in der kolumbianischen Anden. Es sind keine wilden Hunde, es sind die Haus und Hofhunde, die Hütehunde, die auch so umherstreifen und dann Jagd auf die Säuger machen.

"Death of a nation: Black Flags, #massacres, land grabs as #vultures feed on the carcass of #Syria" by #PepeEscobar
"In a nutshell: this is the #NATO/ #Israel combo demilitarizing the former Syria – with not as much as a peep from anybody in the Arab world and the lands of Islam, starting with the Black Flag killers that have taken #Damascus." (Sitrep follows)

Rodenticides are a deadly, and in many places, growing problem for both predators and scavengers. A study out today in the Journal of Raptor Research shows that even after a statewide ban (with a huge agricultural exemption) on anticoagulant rat poison in California, turkey vultures are still being exposed. Important not only for the vultures themselves, but for other species that are harder to monitor, including endangered condors.
Cautiously optimistic news for Cinereous vultures in Portugal. Two years into a monitoring project, both nests and breeding success are up.
#Vultures are good.
A "culture vulture" would be someone who takes a cultural meme or item that is either unneeded or harmful, and makes into something new and useful. Like a great cover of a forgotten song.
A "vulture capitalist" would be someone who runs a truly circular business, making money by reducing waste and making a cleaner, safer world.
I will rest and stop posting forever when these terms are compliments, and not before.
Rat poisons kill a lot more than rats. The latest generation of poisons is extremely deadly to endangered panthers and ferrets as well as raptors, including #vultures, bald eagles, California condors and more:

I do not want to die
I do not want any members of my unscrupulous family saying I should be killed

I would 100% make a visit to Makanda, Illinois for their annual Vulture Fest, an arts and music festival that also celebrates the arrival of migrating vultures into the area. I hope I'm in the Midwest in October sometime, because not many towns have vulture-themed festivals, and I want to give them money for it.
Come for Zoe Grueskin's excellent story about Milagra, the orphaned California condor released last week. Stay for Karine Aigner's amazing photography.
Just a beautiful piece of work all around.
The Yurok Tribe's wildlife office has announced that the last two California Condor releases of 2024 have been successful. A8 and A9 are both young males, and were both hatched and raised at the Oregon Zoo in Portland.
These two make 18 total Prey-go-neesh (their Yurok name) in the skies over Yurok land.
The tribe's IG post has more details: https://www.instagram.com/p/DAuMTYqSHu3/?igsh=dDk5Y25lcWVoaXJv
