Egyptian Vulture
The Egyptian Vulture is a medium-sized bird of prey found in parts of Africa, Europe, and Asia. It has a distinctive appearance, characterized by its white plumage, black wing tips, and a yellow face. This vulture primarily feeds on carrion, but it is also known to eat eggs and small animals.
These birds are important for the ecosystem as they help in cleaning up dead animals, preventing the spread of disease. The Egyptian Vulture is also notable for its use of tools, such as using stones to break open eggs. Conservation efforts are underway to protect this species, as it faces threats from habitat loss and poisoning.
