Vulture

There are 22 species of vultures.These birds don't hunt live prey, but feast on carrion - the flesh of dead animals.
Many vultures use their keen sense of smell to locate carrion. Other vultures find food using their sharp eyesight.
Vultures that don't have feather on their heads are the ones that stick their heads into carcasses while feeding. If their heads had feather , bits of the decaying meat would get stuck to them.
The king vulture of Central and South America is bald. It also has black , bright red and Yellow markings on its head and neck.
