scavenger

As scavengers, vultures always look for the next carcass.

“I’m kind of a scavenger,” U.K.-based designer Ellen Poppy Hill says of her approach to secondhand fabric sourcing.

Think of it as a scavenger hunt for a person on the move with light, escape room-inspired puzzles.

Marini whips out some junior ranger books that depict local wildlife and feature a scavenger hunt that can be completed to earn a badge.

Yet that same stomach-churning tendency also causes vultures to be indispensable to human ecosystems, since the rotting carcasses contain dangerous diseases that could spread to humans if not ingested by more iron-stomached scavengers.
