Vulture Removal & Control

01.01.2006 - Vultures! Those harbingers of death! Those dark-caped masqueraders of the other world! Those connoisseurs of roadkill! Yes, vultures. These vultures in this photo are not Turkey Vultures Cathartes aura, but rather American Black Vultures Coragyps atratus which are more common in the south. They are congregating around an armadillo carcass for unknown reasons. Ha, I always wanted to say that. They are actually there to eat the armadillo carcass for the purposes of nutrition. When they eat the armadillo carcass, they will digest it, and then later on, they will poop. It is this poop, as it is with most birds, that can annoy people. So when vultures tend to roost in an area, they tend to make vulture poop there, and people don't take kindly to vulture poop, which is less appetizing than chocolate souffle. So in I march, with my lasers and pyrotechnics and water jets and such, and I scare those scary vultures away, off to the nether regions of the earth, where they can't bother decent folk again.
