      Aviary doesn't work very well - all of the birds are on the wrong side of the fence ;)

      A pair of white-necked ravens are also in this exhibit.

      It seems rare for zoos to have exotic corvid species.

      I'd be worried being under that many big birds. Are they fully flighted? Does the mesh barrier go through the entire exhibit?

      @elefante The vultures appeared to be fully flighted. This is a wooden hanging bridge inside a fully enclosed mesh tunnel going through the aviary. Visitors and birds are never on the same side of the barrier.
