  • Cover photo description:
  • The griffon vulture Gyps fulvus is a large Old World vulture in the bird of prey family Accipitridae. It is also known as the Eurasian griffon. The griffon vulture is 93–122 cm 37–48 in long with a 2.3–2.8 m 7.5–9.2 ft wingspan. In the nominate race the males weigh 6.2 to 10.5 kg 14 to 23 lb and females typically weigh 6.5 to 11.3 kg 14 to 25 lb, while in the Indian subspecies G. f. fulvescens, the vultures average 7.1 kg 16 lb. Extreme adult weights have been reported from 4.5 to 15 kg 9.9 to 33.1 lb, the latter likely a weight attained in captivity.[2][3] Hatched naked, it is a typical Old World vulture in appearance, with a very white head, very broad wings and short tail feathers. It has a white neck ruff and yellow bill. The buff body and wing coverts contrast with the dark flight feathers.
