Its range is from the southeastern [[United States]] to [[Zona Central|Central Chile]] and [[Uruguay]] in South America. It is a common and widespread species, but less so than the [[turkey vulture]], which breeds well into Canada and south to [[Tierra del Fuego]]. Despite the similar name and appearance, this species is unrelated to the [[Eurasian black vulture]]. {{biology-stub}} [[Category:Birds of North America]] [[Category:Vultures]] [[Category:Cathartidae]] [[Category:Birds of South America]]
