vulture

zootrip USA and Canada 2006

Gyps rueppellii (Rüppell's griffon), an old individual...

Iv'e always wondered why did the zoo decide to remove this species from its collection, and where did they send the vultures too?

I’m not sure where they sent the vulture but I’m sure that it’s stressful having to live with a hippo and the exhibit did not have close to enough branches for the vulture to be on. Plus the vultures wings were clipped so they probably wanted to give the vulture a chance to be able to fly.
