Turkey Vulture HabitatThe turkey vulture lives throughout the Americas, from southern Canada to the tip of Cape Horn in South America, and is a permanent resident of the southern United States. They can be found in almost every habitat, from open fields to woods, wetlands to dry deserts. Most often, they are found in relatively open areas that have nearby woods for nesting. Turkey vultures generally avoid heavily forested areas.
