Pronunciation: [nˈiːə͡ʊfɹən pˈɜːknəptəɹəs] (IPA) 
Neophron percnopterus is a scientific name for the Egyptian vulture, an iconic bird of prey found mainly in Southwestern Asia and North Africa. Synonyms for this bird include Pharaoh's chicken, white scavenger vulture, and the Asian vulture. Despite being a scavenger, it is an important predator that helps maintain ecological balance and control insect and rodent populations. Egyptian vultures are known for their bright white and yellow plumage and distinctive hooked beaks. They are also associated with ancient Egyptian culture and are believed to have been worshiped as a god in some areas. Unfortunately, human activities such as hunting and habitat loss have caused their populations to decline, making them a vulnerable species.
