I have recently seen a Black Vulture (Coragyps atratus) with an odd beak. It was seen in a polluted mangrove area near Rio de Janeiro. Its beak was longer and curvier than of others. So this intriguingly-shaped beak made me think of the reasons that some individuals would devolop and survive into adulthood with malformed beaks in general.
