This episode is about the seven bird species in the family Cathartidae: the New World vultures and condors.
This group includes species like the Turkey Vulture, Black Vulture, and Andean Condor.
Among these birds are some that people celebrate, or even revere. But others tend to get ignored, disparaged, or at worst, persecuted. I guess you could say our relationship with New World Vultures has been… complicated.
