Do vultures live in Nevada?

Yes. There is the Black Vulture, and more common, the Turkey Vulture. The California Condor also lives in Arizona, the Condor is larger than a vulture, but the two birds are very similar in their looks (naked neck, and large usually black wings and of course they are both scavengers). The Turkey Vulture has large black wings with white tips, and has a small pink/red neck. The Black Vulture is named well, black head, black wings, and I do not believe it has any white tips on it's wings. I hope this helped :)
