Scavengers like vultures, komodo dragons, cichlids, foxes, hyenas, maggots, ants & humans. Every Class of the animal kingdom has a scavenger of some sort and many types of animals will become scavengers when food sources dwindle.

Animals of all types will feed on other dead animals (and plants), and when they do, they are called scavengers, detritivores, or decomposers.

Related Information:

Most animals use scavenging as part of their overall survival strategy. However, most do not rely solely on this behavior to make a living. Examples include insects, birds, and many reptiles and mammals (including the carnivores and herbivores).

Saprotrophes, most often associated with fungi, are usually considered to be decomposers, making use of dead organisms (plant and animal). The dead organisms are a excellent source of carbon and proteins, as well as other nutrients for the saprobes.
