Biological effects of aqueous extract from Turkey vulture Cathartes aura (Cathartidae) meat

Journal of Ethnopharmacology, 2013
Cathartes aura is a bird used in the Mexican traditional medicine for the empirical treatment of cancer, injuries, infections and burns.The in vitro immunomodulatory effects of Cathartes aura extract (CAE) were evaluated estimating its effects on proliferation of human peripheral blood mononuclear cells and murine splenocytes. The effects of CAE (1-200

Genome-wide analysis reveals the genomic features of the turkey vulture (Cathartes aura) as a scavenger

Molecular Genetics and Genomics, 2019
Cathartidae is a small family of large-bodied carrion-feeding birds, of which the turkey vulture (Cathartes aura, Cathartidae) is the most widespread distributed. To investigate the chemoreception system, detoxification system, and immune system in the turkey vulture, we compared its genome to 14 other avian genomes.

Olfactory Sensitivity of the Turkey Vulture (Cathartes aura) to Three Carrion-associated Odorants

The Auk, 1986
Abstract The Turkey Vulture (Cathartes aura) is generally thought to rely on olfactory cues to locate carrion. Because vertically rising odorants are dispersed rapidly by wind turbulence, we predict that Turkey Vultures should be highly sensitive to these chemicals to detect them at foraging altitudes. Olfactory thresholds

Indication of the Sense of Smell in the Turkey Vulture, Cathartes aura (Linnaeus), from Feeding Tests

American Midland Naturalist, 1961
Two turkey vultures, Cathartes aura (Linnaeus), were employed in a series of feeding trials. Birds were presented individually with leaf-filled pans in one of which meat was concealed from view. Pans were presented in the open, concealed from direct view behind screens, or concealed in boxes with single openings. In each type of feeding trial pans with

Flapping rates of migrating and foraging Turkey Vultures Cathartes aura in Costa Rica

2006
Local and migrating populations of Turkey Vultures Cathartes aura co-exist in Costa Rica in autumn and spring (Stiles & Skutch 1989). We studied the flapping rates of individuals from these two populations to compare flight modes and the amount of energy invested in active flight. Migrants tended to fly higher in more stable air than local birds, which
