Aviary Sign

Quite many species for ane aviary. I am just curious how many individuals are held from every species. I can guess not many =)

Not many but it is a huge aviary.

The real stars are middle-bottom on this sign - Lesser Yellow-headed Vulture (Cathartes burrovianus) - never seen those anywhere else.

Iimagine this aviary would have a greater food bill then many small zoos. It would take a lot of meat to feed all of these species.

Probably about the same as a small pride of lions, I'm guessing.

Surely the greatest vulture exhibit in the world?

Quite possibly - I certainly don't know of any with more species. It's worth bringing the binoculars if you want to spot them all and tell them apart though!

I've not seen many individuals of each species, I would say, in most cases, they have only a pair of each species. Maguari is right, binoculars are very helpful for the Tierpark. They have some at the Vulture Aviary, but you have to pay to use them.
