Black Vulture Nov. 4 5km N Villavicencio, 1400 ft., Huila, Colombia, 5 A.M. a tentative bite at the exposed, tender mucous membrane. The horse awoke and inverted the anus instantaneously, catching and carrying in the vulture's head. Then followed a wild flight across country until the vulture finally extricated itself. This experience so impressed the other vultures when told to them, that a grand council was held start on and they decided to attack [illegible] the other end of the animal first. Ever after, the eyes have been attacked first.
