The Mojo Griffon Vulture figure is a well crafted representation of this majestic scavenger bird.
The vulture is depicted in a lifelike standing position, with its wings tucked tight in a relaxed pose. The plumage is carefully painted in shades of brown (with white highlights) and cream, reflecting the bird’s natural coloration.
The figure highlights the vulture's long wings and short tail, which are characteristic of this species. The head and neck are sculpted with precision, showcasing the featherless areas that help prevent bacteria from accumulating while feeding. The beak is curved and powerful, designed for tearing flesh, and is painted a realistic dark grey. The eyes are sharp and expressive, capturing the keen vision of the vulture. Overall a good model from Mojo.
The Mojo Griffon Vulture figure measures approx: 3.7 L x 2.4 H x 2.5 W inches.
The Griffon Vulture is a large Old World vulture found across southern Europe, North Africa, and parts of Asia. Known for their impressive size and vital role in the ecosystem, Griffon Vultures are among the most important scavengers in their habitats. They help keep the environment clean by consuming carcasses, thereby preventing the spread of disease.
Griffon Vultures are easily recognized by their large size, with a wingspan that can exceed 8.2 feet and a body length of around 3.3 feet. They have a robust body covered in brownish feathers, while their head and neck are mostly bare, which is an adaptation to their scavenging lifestyle. The lack of feathers on their heads and necks helps keep these areas clean when they feed on carrion. The Griffon Vulture's strong, hooked beak is perfectly suited for tearing into tough hides and extracting meat from bones.
