Vultures are the type of animal that fix problems and make them they clean up dead animals. But they also cause many problems for people like damaging houses and trees with their droppings. And when they do this it's not just one normally it's the whole roost, which can be up to nine vultures and their droppings are very acidic. They damage car paint, tear caulking from windows, and destroy patio furniture. There are ways to get rid of them like spraying them with water or making loud noises.
You can scare away vultures by putting decoys of owls and hawks on nearby trees. But they help the environment by cleaning up dead animals off the roads. Dead animals have curtain toxins in their bodies that harm the environment. So the problem is vultures may help the environment by cleaning up dead animals but also harm it by destroying people's stuff and leaving a mess. They can also have rabies which can transfer to some animals and make them sick.
but without them, animals are more likely to get sick and put humans in danger of sickly dead or alive animals. So in some ways, they help a lot. so people and animals need vultures because they prevent the spread of disease." What would happen if vultures went extinct?" well if vultures went extinct that would give other scavengers like raccoons and possums more food. But this would be bad for people because these animals go into cities and dead animals have many bad toxins in them so if a raccoon were to eat a dead animal with a disease and then go into a city then a dog or a cat could get that disease.
Therefore vultures are very important to everyone like keeping people somewhat healthy from the certain diseases that dead animals carry. There are 23 different types of vultures and it's not true that they circle dead animals. Their legs and feet are weak When they are threatened they vomit to lessen their body weight. so they can escape more easily to fly Vomiting also is a defense to scare off predators that may be threatening the birds.
Why are vultures bald? Vultures have bald heads because when they are eating they would get their feathers dirty so this way their head remains clean. Well, somewhat they are very messy eaters but they make sure they get every last piece Vultures will often insert their head completely inside the carcass they are cleaning up. Yuck! I didn't say they were very fancy birds. And there is a fable that says “Even then, the Vulture knowing that sun had to be shifted to the heavens flew with all the strength in its wings and pushed the sun up and up in the heavens, thence putting the relay to an end. He had lost all the hair of his head by then and returned bald.”
