*** About Turkey Vultures: Turkey vultures are remarkable scavengers, known for their acute sense of smell and their vital role in the ecosystem as decomposers. They are found throughout the Americas and are particularly noted for their bald, red heads and dark bodies, which can span up to six feet across. Adapted to a life of soaring, these birds conserve energy by riding thermals and can travel vast distances in search of carrion. Their presence in ecosystems helps prevent the spread of disease from dead animals, showcasing a unique balance between death and the sustenance of life.
