The correct answer is a. acute sense of smell. The greater-yellow headed vulture has developed this particular adaptation as a result of its diet, which consists of the dead corpses of forest mammals. Unlike the harpy eagle, which hunts for live prey, the vulture feeds upon animals which are no longer moving so this highly developed sense of smell is necessary for survival.
