Welcome hooded vultures Tutaonana and Kiara! For t Welcome hooded vultures Tutaonana and Kiara! For the first time in Woodland Park Zoo’s 126-year history, two critically endangered hooded vultures are calling the zoo home. The pair can be found across from the maned wolves, where they have quickly gotten comfortable in their new home and are enjoying snacking on their favorite treat of raw meatballs. 

Like many species of vultures across the world, the population of hooded vultures has dramatically declined over recent decades, making them one of Africa’s most threatened birds. Get all the details at blog.zoo.org or blog link in bio. #woodlandparkzoo #vultures #hoodedvulture #birds #birdnerd
