White-backed vultures possess an extremely acidic stomach (pH 1) that neutralizes pathogens like anthrax, allowing them to safely consume infected carcasses and prevent disease spread; when India accidentally eliminated vultures with a cattle painkiller, feral dogs replaced them as scavengers, but unlike vultures, dogs cannot neutralize pathogens, resulting in 48,000 additional human deaths from rabies.

This Bird Eats Anthrax And Wins | KeystoneAdded:
The white-backed vulture has a stomach pH of 1. Battery acid is zero. This bird eats anthrax and the anthrax dies. A flock of them can strip a full-size buffalo to bone in 20 minutes, which is genuinely insane and also the reason your water supply is not full of cholera. When India accidentally wiped out its vultures with a cheap cattle painkiller, feral dogs replaced them.
Dogs do not neutralize pathogens. 48,000 additional people died of rabies. I'm not making this up. Full story is on the channel.
