Page "Egyptian Vulture" Paragraph 16

Healthy adults do not have many predators, but human activities pose many threats.

Collisions with power lines, hunting, intentional poisoning, lead accumulation from ingesting gunshot in carcasses, and pesticide accumulation take a toll on populations.

Young birds at the nest are sometimes taken by Golden Eagles, eagle owls, and red foxes.

Only rarely do adult birds attempt to drive away predators.

Young birds that fall off of cliff ledges may be preyed on by mammalian predators such as jackals, foxes and wolves.
