[Video] Vultures Mysteriously Fall from the Sky in Gulf of Mexico
There are so many animals that are important to our ecosystem. Usually, it's animals that you wouldn't expect.
Rats
Rats??? Yes, RATS! They're an important part of our ecosystem. According to Listverse, Rats are mainly vegetarian in the wild, but urban rats will eat garbage and scraps of anything. They are useful cleaners. They are also prey for hawks, owls, falcons, snakes, and cats. They are, then, an important part of the food chain.
Termites
Termites are animals that you don't want in the support beams of your home. That doesn't mean that they are important to the ecosystem. According to Listverse, They play a vital role in decomposition. Termites are also an essential food source for a wide range of predators. We also eat them; some 43 species can end up in a pot to make a protein-rich meal for humans.
Vultures
Vultures are widely known as scavengers, but they are very important to our ecosystem. A vulture is an effective cleanser of the environment according to Listverse. Sadly, there were dozens of vultures that mysteriously died in the Gulf of Mexico.

A video on Instagram shows the aftermath of countless vultures falling from the sky into the ocean. In the video, you can see vultures in the water floating motionless, and other flapping in the water.
Many wondered what caused countless vultures to fall from the sky.
In the caption of the video, there was an explanation offered as to why they fell from the sky.
"If the wind shifts suddenly or there’s a lack of these updrafts, they can lose the lift they need to fly. During storms or extreme weather, they can even become disoriented or weak from sudden drops in temperature or pressure, which can cause them to fall, the caption said in the video"
The caption continued, "In short, it's usually a mix of weather factors—like shifting winds or a lack of thermals—that leads to vultures dropping from the sky in this area."
