About These Birds

Common Raven

ワタリガラス(Corvus corax)— 北半球に広く分布する最大のスズメ目の鳥。高い知性をもち、道具を使うことや問題解決能力が知られている。

シロエリハゲワシ

The griffon vulture is one of Europe's largest flying birds and a crucial scavenger in Mediterranean ecosystems. These social birds nest in large cliff colonies and can soar for hours using thermals without flapping. Vulture populations faced a crisis from the veterinary drug diclofenac, which proved fatal when consumed through contaminated carcasses.
