Out of curiosity, since there are so many vultures today, if you had to identify Buzz Buzzard from the Woody Woodpecker cartoons, which species would you pick?

ah man. he doesnโ€™t EXACTLY match any vultures…iโ€™m guessing he was basically a caricature of the concept of a vulture, without any specific reference.

with that being said…i think he looks closest to a white-rumped vulture. or a really funky black vulture, but the ruff around the neck throws me off
