Vultures and Rattlesnakes Across the International Boundary
Naturalists on the boundary survey recount a dramatic airborne hunt in the Cocopah Mountains of Lower California. A California vulture killed a nearly six foot rattlesnake in midair after grasping it behind the head, then dropped the prey only to reel it back in and finish the catch. The spectacle occurred high above observers as the vulture’s feathers shielded it from the snake’s fangs.
