Griffon Vulture Skull Replica

The Griffon vulture is an Old World vulture that can be found in parts of southern Europe, southwest and central Asia, and North Africa. This large raptor nests on steep cliffs, gorges and rock outcrops and forages in dry open country to semi-deserts and mountain slopes. The vulture is approximately 37-42 inches (95-105 cm) in length, with a skull length of approximately 5 inches (12 cm). This scavenger feeds mostly on carrion that it finds soaring over open grassland areas. Its strong, hooked beak is uniquely equipped for tearing flesh. This cast would a great addition to any biology, zoology or paleontology program studying comparative bird skull anatomy. This museum quality Bone Clones® replica measures 5" L x 2" W x 2" H.
