Abstract:
Fuller calls vultures \"the custodians of the biological world--happily devouring the smelliest, foulest, and most putrid remains found in nature.\" North Carolina has two species--the black vulture and the turkey vulture. Fuller details their eating habits, and if the vultures are harassed, they will throw up \"their hot, stinky, corrosive stomach contents,\" definitely a deterrent to any would-be predator.
