Thanks to people\u2019s change of mind, however, this fascinating raptor is gradually increasing in several regions. It is very well adapted to feeding on carcasses: Its head and long neck are only lightly covered with feathers and a ruff at the base of its neck protects the rest of the body from soiling. They systematically scan an area without losing sight of members of the same species or smaller soaring hunters such as Kites, Northern Ravens and Egyptian Vultures. In this way, Griffon Vultures find many carcasses even in structured terrain in a surprisingly short time."}
