is it dangerous to eat rotten food ?

Because I only eat rotten food and had no problems yet.

Not a problem if you are a turkey vulture.

I guess not. You're still able to post, so rotten food must be good for
you. Keep eating it.

If you think about it, most "fermented" proucts could be considered
"rotten". :-) Kim-chee and saurkraut, beer or wine...... or anything
else made with yeast since it is a fungus, and most fungi are involved
in the process of decay.

This thread could be fun, but I suppose we should not feed the trolls! ;-)

A very interesting bird:
http://www.accutek.com/vulture/

"One of the more important studies we will be conducting is the ability of
the vulture's digestive system to kill the bacteria and virus of infected
meat the bird consumes. The ability to disinfect rodent carcasses carrying
the Hantavirus will be studied. This work could possibly be of much
significance to human medical research."

Why not? I thought Dimitri's post about vultures was far more
interesting than most of what goes on here. And the original post,
while stupid, was at least topical and it wasn't crossposted to a
half-dozen unrelated groups.

Best regards,
Bob

And baby turkey vultures are cute as anything... ;-)
Betty, (a local raptor rehabber), told me about her adventures in
raising one. :-) Turns out that they tame too easily and can be a pain
to make wild!

Sadie would follow her around the house and untie her shoelaces, and
LOVED to be handfed! When she tried to release her, Sadie hung out on
local mailboxes and "begged" <G>. The neighbors were not quite sure what
to do! LOL!

She finally found a local turkey vulture roosting site and managed to
complete the rehab. It would probably be best to raise these birds in
pairs, even if you had to capture a wild baby to help work with the
rescued one... IMHO anyway.

There are many of these birds in the Texas hill country area, and I
think that they are charming creatures! I've only taken in injured
adults so far, (usually ones that survived being clipped by a car whilst
consuming Texas speed bumps (aka armadillos) and needed remedial care.
:-) )

I personally like them. They have delighful personalties!

That's so funny. I actually have a turkey vulture story.

Someone told me there were turkey vulture hanging out on people's
rooves, then there was a story in the paper, gangs of turkey vultures
were eating peoples rooves.

So one Sunday morning, I'm reading my paper, drinking my coffee, keep
hearing some noise. Must be windy. Whatever. Gradually, as I woke
up, I'm like, what is that noise? Finally went into the livingroom.

Looked through the skylight to see this ENORMOUS bird on my fireplace
chimney. HEY! You aren't eating my new roof!!! (laugh) I went
outside to chase it away, there had to be a dozen of them on my roof.
Holy crow. No pun intended. Got the dog to bark at them and they
took off (yeah, like Rascal could get on the roof). They took off,
blocked out the sun and the whoosh whoosh whoosh of their wings
practically sucked up the atmosphere.

Was amazing.

The birds although quite ugly are some of the most beautiful "soaring" birds
I have ever seen. They can glide on the gentlest breeze for hours barely
moving their wings and almost never flapping them.

I think they soar in the same manner as some men wish they could fly.

Beautiful creatures aren't they? :-)
They have at least a 6 ft. wingspan.....

The local wildlife rescue facility often has dozens of them hanging
around. They have some permanent residents, (crippled lynxes, mountain
lions, etc.) that need meat. Usually, discarded meat has to be burned by
law, but they just feed it to the vultures. :-)

I've been watching them the past couple of days. I don't know why
they are hanging around now except it's deer running into car season,
here. They really are graceful. The vultures and the deer.

Now, if only the deer would stop hitting my car every year, I might
not be in danger of losing my car insurance.

You may try installing "deer whistles" on your front bumper.
They are not 100% effective, but are supposed to help.....

Wal-Mart has them in the automotive section.

I feel your pain! I've hit a deer 3 times so far, and done major damage
twice. I increased my co-pay to $400.00 and they backed off.

Thank goodness that the Texas white tails are not much bigger than a
large goat. 150 lbs. for a large buck.

During hunting season, I've learned to simply slow down when I know that
I'm in an area where there are deer, and that includes the suburban area
within 1 block of my house! There was a small, young, road killed buck
about 100 ft. down the road from my driveway a couple of weeks ago. :-(

Yeah, I keep with the $500 deductible. I'm of the mind that insurance
is for large problems, same with medical. Not interested in filing
a claim for every little thing.

That has not helped. A deer actually jumped on the roof when I
slowed down. It was standing still on the side of the road.

<snort> Not very bright animals, are they? <G>

One of the ones I hit doubled back. I missed it the first time, but not
the second...

Wildlife rescue inc. is probably one of the best, most sensible bunch of
people I've ever met. They are one of the few charities I regularly
donate to! I'm not spamming for them, (it's not my place) but if anyone
in Central Texas wants to get involved with a worthy cause, I'd highly
recommend them. We do "ambulance service" for them from our area as
often as we can. We are now the only ones left in the San Marcos area
that will take on the wild critters. :-( Strictly voluntary and
unpaid... It's been very rewarding. If I get a donation with a critter,
it goes to _them_ with the animal. I don't keep the money.

Apparently it makes people stupid.

Llort Agig saw Sally selling seashells by the seashore and told us all
