A circling vulture doesn't really vocalise much — most of its sound presence comes from the heavy wing flap at low altitude and the rare hiss when it's challenged at a carcass. These 16 vulture sound effects respect that vocabulary instead of inventing fake screeches: dry hisses captured at close range, the low scavenger grunts at a feeding site, distant wing flaps from circling birds overhead, and the rarer carrion-feeding calls between two animals competing for the same kill.
Desert and post-apocalyptic scenes lean on the wing-flap material because it implies what's overhead without needing the visual. Horror trailers pull the hiss for short stingers — half a second is enough to read 'something is waiting'. Wildlife documentary editors use the carcass vocalisations to score the harder moments of food-chain footage. Take what the scene calls for; the full set is free to grab with no licence chase.
