" These vultures congregate in flocks of twenty or thirty. On a 
dead camel, or horse, or bullock, being thrown out on the plain, 
numbers of them are found assembled round it in an incredibly short 
time, although they may not have been seen in the neighbourhood 
for weeks before. The proportional length of the intestine to the 
body of these birds, is three to one."— (Sykes, P. Z. S., 1832, p. 77.)
