The Numididae bird Acryllium vulturinum, known as the Vulturine Guineafowl, is native to East Africa’s grasslands and savannas.

Their vibrant plumage, long tail, regal crowns, and bright red necks make them stand out. Amazing beauty is their claim to fame. Vulturine Guineafowl form large flocks to forage and defend themselves.

 

They also flock. They mostly eat seeds and vegetation, with insects and small animals as supplements. The species’ habitat loss and hunting have reduced its natural population and raised awareness of conservation efforts.
