This may be a useful tidbit of information, though since it conflicts with part of the article I'm not sure how to integrate it: "only remaining colony of griffon vultures is on [Akrotiri] base." [1] 66.27.233.203 16:13, 3 October 2006 (UTC)
Could we have some information on the various subspecies please? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 87.192.112.144 ( talk) 13:40, 10 September 2007 (UTC)

Is there a good reason for including Rüppell's Vulture in this article? It has an article of its own, which includes everything mentioned here. My feeling is that the most we might need here is a link to the other species – or if this bit is relevant to all Griffon-type vultures it could go in Gyps.-- Richard New Forest 11:23, 16 October 2007 (UTC)
I have seen mention of this species as a possible former inhabitant of Britain. Is there any evidence for this, such as archaeological finds or ancient records? Apparently there were Old English names for vulture, though this does not of course prove they did occur in Britain at that time (see this very interesting page: [2] – also [3]).-- Richard New Forest 11:23, 16 October 2007 (UTC)
I feel the lead image could be improved because the head is not clear against the wing, and the mountain in the background is rather distracting. I've just realised that these problems almost dissapear when the image is enlarged. Alternatives could be -

Out of these four images, I feel that an enlargement of the current lead image would be the best solution. The one on the far left is problematic in that it does not show the vulture's entire body, while in the center image, the head is also unclear against the wing. I feel that the far right image would not be distinct in the small size that the species tab requires. EvinYZhao ( talk) 23:50, 30 April 2016 (UTC)
I would like to develop a physiology section of this article.
I am currently examining the physiology of flight in the Griffon vulture, using this source: "Duriez, Olivier, et al. "How Cheap Is Soaring Flight In Raptors? A Preliminary Investigation In Freely-Flying Vultures." Plos ONE 9.1 (2014): 1-8. Academic Search Premier. Web. 3 Mar. 2016." EvinYZhao ( talk) 19:57, 2 April 2016 (UTC)
For my draft on the Griffon Vulture page I added a physiology section and added a little to the intraspecific competition section. I would like peer advice as to what to do with the mass of bullet points that is the status in eurasia. Thanks, EvinYZhao ( talk) 23:51, 30 April 2016 (UTC)

Did anyone notice the killing of Yatsey the vulture by a lioness in Colchester Zoo? [1] Leo1pard ( talk) 07:43, 6 February 2018 (UTC)

Hello! This is a note to let the editors of this article know that File:Gyps fulvus in flight - Spain.jpg will be appearing as picture of the day on March 11, 2018.

If this article needs any attention or maintenance, it would be preferable if that could be done before its appearance on the Main Page. — Chris Woodrich ( talk) 02:01, 25 February 2018 (UTC)
Why does it pose a problem or show a problem when the vulture had eaten the corpse? It didn't kill the lady! -- 46.40.244.77 ( talk) 15:10, 14 November 2019 (UTC)
