Plastic ingestion and dispersion by vultures may produce plastic islands in natural areas

Fernando Ballejo et al.

Summary: The study found that rubbish dumps are important sources of plastic, with different vulture species showing varying levels of plastic debris in their regurgitated pellets. Andean condors had almost no plastic debris in their pellets, while black and turkey vultures showed increased plastic debris, indicating the influence of foraging habits and the degree of humanized sites on plastic ingestion.

Global distribution and conservation of avian diet specialization

Federico Morelli et al.

Summary: Specialist bird species are more at risk of extinction than generalist species, and their distribution does not always align with overall bird species richness. Certain areas, such as the Amazon and Central Africa, have a higher concentration of diet specialist birds than expected. While the global protected area system adequately represents a significant portion of resident and breeding species, there is still a need to improve protection for the most threatened species by including measures of specialization in conservation planning.

Presumed killers? Vultures, stakeholders, misperceptions, and fake news

Sergio A. Lambertucci et al.

Summary: Vultures and condors are highly threatened avian species due to human activities. Negative perceptions, amplified by social media, can increase these threats. It is important to evaluate reports of vulture predation, conduct awareness campaigns, and improve livestock management practices to develop an effective conservation strategy for vultures worldwide.
