Vultures are amazing birds, but they are often misunderstood. They have relatively bare heads and often bare necks, which prevents feathers from matting while feeding on carcasses. Vulture’s stomach acids allows these scavengers to feed on rotting carcasses that may be infected with dangerous bacteria. They urinate on their legs and feet to cool off on hot days, a process called urohydrosis. Their urine also helps kill any bacteria or parasites they’ve picked up from walking through carcasses or perching on dead animals.
