Vulture

Vultures are creatures that appear in The Lion King universe

Appearance
The vultures seen in The Lion King franchise are most likely white-backed vulture (scientific name Gyps africanus) as those species of Old World vultures have a white neck ruff seen in The Lion King franchise.

If they are the correct species, white-backed vultures have feathers on the head and neck, very broad wings and short tail feathers, along with a white neck ruff. The adult's whitish back contrasts with the otherwise dark plumage while juvenile vultures are largely dark. This is a medium-sized vulture; its body mass is 4.2 to 7.2 kilograms (9.3–16 lb), it is 94 cm (37 in) long and has a 218 cm (86 in) wingspan.
