Why it matters
The Palm-nut Vulture (Gypohierax angolensis) is a unique bird of prey, notable for being one of the few raptors that derives a significant portion of its diet from plant matter, specifically the fruit of oil palms. Its distinctive silhouette is defined by broad wings and a rounded tail, allowing it to navigate the forested regions and mangroves of sub-Saharan Africa with remarkable agility.
