Black Vulture (Coragyps atratus) thumbnail image on AnimalDex

Black Vulture

Species principle: Convergence

Gather on the sign.

What one eye misses, many wings can find together.

Black Vultures often forage socially and may follow other vultures or flock members to carrion. Unlike Turkey Vultures, they rely more heavily on vision and social cues than smell.

Honey Bee

Species principle: Collective Industry

Dance the map.

A hive becomes powerful when good information moves through every body.

Honey Bees gather nectar and pollen, live in highly organized colonies, divide labor, and use waggle dances to communicate the direction and distance of rich food sources.
