Indian vulture.....are sometimes looked at in a negative light, mass being unaware that they play a very important role in efficiently disposing of carcasses and disinfecting the meat for consumption. Their strong stomach acid and high body temperature destroy corpse pathogens such as rabies and tuberculosis with little to no ill effects unlike any other animal. Their presence may be associated with death but they have qualities that are admirable when you acknowledge their patience in waiting and never attacking anything that is still living.
