GRIFFON VULTURE
(Gyps fulvus)
Gryphon Vultures, a.k.a. Eurasian Vultures, feed on dead animals, including the occasional human who has died or been killed accidentally in remote locales. The ones pictured above feed on dead animals in the reserve at Uvac Lake, 350 km southwest of Belgrade, Serbia. Over 500 specimens of the Griffon Vulture inhabit the stonewalls above the reserve. With a wingspan of up to 300 cm, they are some of the country's largest birds.
