Vulture restaurant
Vultures are fed in a wildlife rehabilitation center in South Africa. The reason behind is this: Poachers often poison the carcasses of their victims, so that vultures die when feeding on the carcass, and do not show the location of a dead animal to the rangers. Due to this practice, there is an alarming decrease of the vulture population. The birds have their place in the ecosystem by playing the part of a sanitary police. For this reason, measures are taken to increase the number of vultures again. At the vulture restaurant here, remains of slaughtered animals (in this case a cow) are fed.
