Can we learn tolove vultures?

[Oluwole Emmanuel Olusegun]

Cape vultures swoop down from South Africa's blue spring

sky over the Magaliesberg Cliffs. Dozens skim over the dry,brown grassland to a "vulture restaurant". A carcass has been laid out in the sun, flies buzzing around it and crows and egrets pecking at its skin. Slowly, one brave female gingerly approaches. Step by step, each gently-landed claw accompanied by a cautious scan of the area for danger. They take their time - an hour

or more passes before they feel confident. But once one vulture takes her first snatches of flesh, the

others pounce. A feeding-frenzy ensues. Each vulture pushing and squabbling its way to enough food to satisfy itself - and the chick waiting back on the cliffs. We are at VulPro, on the outskirts of Haartebeesport,an hour's drive from Johannesburg. It is a nature conservancy dedicated to a species that has got a reputation as the least cute, least huggable of all animals. But Kerri Wolter, the head of VulPro, believes that the role that vultures play in nature -

clearing away disease-ridden flesh - is crucial: "We've got to lift the profile of vulture species to the same

level as rhino, we've got to get people to acknowledge they are important."

What we can learn is everything is askew, out of balance. Only Jehovah can fix it, and fix it, He will!

What we can learn is everything is askew, out of balance. Only Jehovah can fix it, and fix it, He will!

That's right, only Jehovah can fix the unbalance in creation, human and animal including species of insects for whatever reason Jehovah made them, perhaps for the plants and trees so we can live.  its a big cycle round and round, and up and down.  Jehovah made everything good, no imperfections there!   Satan started the UNBALANCING in the Garden of Eden, and its been down hill ever since!
