Turkey vultures primarily scavenge for carrion, which includes the remains of dead animals. They have an excellent sense of smell that allows them to detect rotting flesh from great distances. While they do not hunt live prey, they may occasionally feed on small animals that are already injured or weak. Their diet plays a crucial role in the ecosystem by helping to dispose of dead animals and prevent the spread of disease.
