I encountered a very large flock of buzzards eating an armadillo, and almost hit one. I truly wondered if I had, would the others have then eaten the buzzard???

I was told that buzzards will eat anything that's dead except their own kind. I don't know how true it is, but we have a buzzard "problem" at my work place and someone said the building owners put a dead buzzard on the roof and that was suppsoed to keep them away. Doesn't seem to be working becuase I still see the buzzards, but I can't tell if their actually eating the dead on up there. Eww, just thinking about it is gross!

Not sure.
HOWEVER, you'd have to destroy the car. buzzard guts would get into the air system, and that is the WORST smell you could possibly imagine. Their gullets have some seriously vile bacteria in them to digest rotten meat without them getting ill, and that would get into your car and would NEVER leave. And of course you wouldn't be able to sell it either!

Buzzards are buzzards, that's what they do. Don't think they have and moral or ethical objections to eating their own dead.

They'd leave it for the vultures.

With great relish.
Or mayo if they cannot get relish.
