Trivia[]
- The two types of Vulture in RDR2 reference two subspecies of turkey vulture in real life, the eastern turkey vulture (Cathartes aura septentrionalis) and the western turkey vulture (C. a. meridionalis).
- An apparent oversight is the Compendium portrait of the Eastern Turkey Vulture depicting another species, the black vulture (Coragyps atratus), which is not found in-game. This second vulture species found in the United States features a broader, grey-skinned head with a narrower beak.
