11 Jaw-Dropping Facts About the Bone-Eating Bearded Vulture

6. One of the Largest Old World Vultures

Bearded vultures are among the largest of the old world vultures, growing up to 4 feet tall with a wingspan ranging from 7 to 9 feet. They usually weigh between 10 to 15 pounds, making them an imposing sight in the sky. Their impressive size and wingspan allow them to soar effortlessly for long distances, searching for food across vast landscapes.

These birds are built for soaring flight, with long, narrow wings that provide excellent lift and maneuverability. Their wings are adapted to gliding on thermals, allowing them to cover great distances with minimal effort. This adaptation is crucial for their scavenging lifestyle, as they need to travel far and wide to find suitable food sources.
