Quote HistoryQuoted: I was riding with a Federal Game Warden(Refuge Officer) on one of their properties open to the public for fishing. Enroute to check some fisherman when we spotted an obviously run over water moccasin rolling around in the road. He got out and filmed/took pictures of the snake and continued on. We got to the fishing area and there was only one vehicle there with two guys still setting up their fishing gear. Warden asked if they saw that snake in the road and the guy who had been driving proudly said, “Hell yes I did! He’s a good snake now after I ran his ass over”. Think that citation wound up costing him $200 |

When I was looking at houses many years ago. I went to look at a house and Turkey Vultures had been roosting in a tree in the back yard. The house didn't appeal to me that much but I saw that and said f that. Dang funny to see patients coming into the clinic for their early morning appointments with a tree full of vultures about 50ft from the front door....

Growing up in Wa. Never remember seeing vultures. Saw 2 all black ones yesterday and see the ones with red heads often (thinking they are turkey, never looked into what was what with them). But they are something that is new that you see often..... We have golden eagles now as well and never use to have them.... I thought it was just Wa that was turning into a predator pit since this state wants to protect anything that eats wild life.... now you have bears, wolfs and big cats in peoples neighborhoods....

I'd never seen on until a few years ago. Some neighbor let their dogs run free and they killed a fawn. I looked out the window and there are these huge vultures out there. I've seen a bunch this year feasting on roadkill.

Around here the black vulture should be named an invasive species and killed by any means available. They have almost pushed out the turkey vulture, which does belong here. The turkey vulture only cleans up what is already dead. The black vulture kills anything that can’t defend itself. Which is anything smaller than a 200 pound calf.

The black vultures roost in a nearby parking lot. People park there to hike and fish. The vultures will pull every bit of rubber trim off a car that offends them. Theres no rhyme or reason as to why they choose one car, and leave dozens of others alone, but they do what looks like $1000's in damage.
The locals in the know will tarp their cars or tie balloons to their antennas. Sometimes it works. Sometimes it doesn't. |

Speaking of vultures, I was leaving the local Home Depot last week in my suburban city and stopped at a traffic light and observed these two big birds right outside of my car by the curb. They looked like two medium sized turkeys. They were eating something that I couldn't see and had to move quick before the light changed. There was lots of traffic and they didn't seem to care.

Last week I watched a doe try to protect her fawn from black vultures in the pasture land behind our house. Not sure if the fawn was injured or what because the grass was so high. Wasn't long before 5 or 6 vultures started making their move. The doe did her best to chase off the birds but just couldn't keep up with them. She rose up on her two hind legs a couple times to scare the birds off the nearby fence. It was an interesting nature battle. Those vultures then started pecking at the fawn which was likely still alive when they started the attack.

I’m starting to see them everywhere. Turkey vultures would always let you know when a calf drops because they patiently wait on the placenta with no interest in the the calf, or at least one they would act on. The black bastards are vicious. |

There is a house about 6 miles from me that has about 50 of them hanging out. They are on the roof, in the trees, everywhere. It is kind of a run down old country house. It is freaking creepy.

Warmer winters may have increased the number of vultures in the U.S., said Wayne Long, the Jefferson County extension agent for the University of Kentucky College of Agriculture, Food and Environment. Vultures, he said, take advantage of climate change and hang around more in a spot they like. |
