In a bizarre twist of nature meets nightlife, a Connecticut wildlife rehab dubbed ‘A Place Called Hope’ recently hosted a couple of vultures who apparently swapped their usual predatory prowls for a bender. These feathered dumpster divers stumbled upon some fermented feast in the trash and decided to party hard. Unfortunately, their hangover was so severe they were grounded, unable to flap back to the skies.
The staff at the rescue treated our inebriated aviators with some tender loving care, fluids, and a big breakfast—the classic morning-after cure. Once sober, the vultures rejoined their colony, probably to share wild tales of their night out. The rescue used this incident to remind everyone to keep their trash secure—not all wildlife has a taste for last night’s forgotten cocktails.
This comedic feathered fiasco highlights that even birds can have too much of a good thing. Always secure your garbage, folks, unless you want to host an impromptu wildlife rave!
