Baby birds are different from baby mammals in some interesting ways. This is different from mammals. In mammal species where there is an overproduction of offspring, it is not uncommon for one of the offspring to be underfed so it dies. That is a signal that always says “I’m hungry feed me NAO!

Additionally, Cathartes vultures are unable to grab, kill, and carry a prey item with their feed. What is unusual here is that these vultures may be sniffing for large invertebrates as their feet are no help when it comes to grab and kill a small mammal. Their feed are more like that of a Wood Stork. This is pure speculation.

Grief, friendship, gratitude, wonder, and other things we animals experience. It’s not surprising that animals—especially, but not only, mammals—share many emotions with us because we also share brain structures—located in the limbic system—that are the seat of our emotions.
