TIL: Vultures Have to Eat Animals Butt-First

Posted by

Depending on your beliefs (and luck) when you drop dead, there are a variety of things that potentially await what’s left of your handsome corpse. If you are Christian, you might be put in a box, and your friends will come by to tell each other how great you look. Nobody said this when you were alive—but hey, take what you can get! Hindus are typically cremated, and if you are a Jedi you might meet a similar fate while surrounded by Ewoks.

If you kick the bucket in certain parts of Mozambique, a wake of vultures might gather ’round and peck out your lifeless eyeballs. After your eyes, these scavenging birds will most likely move on to your butt. Like Sir Mix-A-Lot—but for different reasons—vultures are preoccupied with the derriere. Vultures are just opportunists, and naturally go after the soft spots first.

National Geographic Explorer Jen Guyton is studying mammal ecology and conservation in Gorgongosa National Park in Mozambique. In this week’s Today I Learned, Guyton explains that Vultures are eating more tush than usual due to loss of larger scavengers. Bon appétit!

Cow’s Head Tacos, Grasshoppers, and Mezcal: Chef’s Night Out with Pablo Salas

Posted by

Mexico has one of the richest, most diverse food traditions of any country in the world. From north to south, east to west, you can find an infinite variety of delicious plates on your table.

Even with this in mind, Toluca City—two hours away from Mexico City—is not exactly the first place you think about when you think of Mexico’s food culture, but that’s likely about to change.

Chef Pablo Salas was born in Toluca, and is one of the first chefs to put the city’s gastronomic style on the map, earning his restaurant Amaranta acclaim as one of the top five restaurants in Mexico. We visited Pablo at Amaranta for some of the best high-end versions of Mexican street food that we’ve ever tried. We miss you already, Toluca!
