(Ticaret) The Bearded Vulture (Gypaetus barbatus), also known as the Lammergeier or Lammergeyer, is a bird of prey, and the only member of the genus Gypaetus.

It has the habit of carrying tortoises and marrow bones to a great height, and dropping them on stones to obtain the contents, and is therefore called bonebreaker and ossifrage
When full-grown it is nine or ten feet in extent of wings
It is brownish black above, with the under parts and neck rusty yellow; the forehead and crown white; the sides of the head and beard black
It is supposed to be the ossifrage of the Bible
