Woman Devoured by Vultures in 45-50 mins.
 

The body of a tourist was devoured by vultures in a matter of minutes after she fell over a cliff in the Pyrenees in France.

The 52-year-old woman tumbled down a 300-meter drop while taking a shortcut while hiking with friends on Pic de la Pista, in southern France, gendarmerie Major Didier Pericou told The Times of London.

"There were only bones, clothes and shoes left," after the vultures got to her, Pericou said. "They took 45 to 50 minutes to eat the body."

That long? I've seen half a dozen seagulls empty a 5 gallon tub of fish guts in 5 minutes.

That woman must have been HUGE. :D

:1orglaugh:1orglaugh:1orglaugh - Maybe she just got off the champagne and cream cheese tour...I guess new rule is don't leave your babies out by themselves if you're in that part of France.

pics or it never happened...

That is horrible :(

That'll teach her for going around saying "eat me" to everyone who disagreed with her.

Bitch finally got what she wanted. :eatme

Why she´s dead

good way to get rid of the dead, whats the difference between getting eaten by birds or worms?

It happens.

wheres the pics??

My tank full of red devils will devour 5 or more ounces of meat in a minute, So a good feeding frenzy could see a body disappear in seconds would have made a pretty disturbing view. If you ever see a skull in my tank you will know i had to get rid of a body.

Going by bear is such a worse way

alligator....they don't kill you right away. take you under, then the "death roll" then you drown...

:2 cents:

At least the flesh was put to good use, instead of rotting in the ground

:( why people want to get near the edge is beyond me

french vultures - they were using cutlery

Well, I am sure she wasn't expecting her day to end that way.

:1orglaugh:1orglaugh:1orglaugh

Yup :thumbsup

thats quite shocking

To be fair to the vultures, they could have been quicker if she'd been chunked into 5 gallon pails.

I'm just saying. :helpme

Nice. Means she is being scattered all over the area she loved.

:1orglaugh:1orglaugh

Yeah really very shocked, meat less women. Oh noes.

from the article:
The population of Griffon vultures, normally scavengers, have begun to go after live animals because of new regulations requiring farmers to burn dead animals.

and this:
?It is established that she died in the fall," he said. ?When we first went out in the helicopter looking for the body, we saw numerous vultures without realising what they were doing."

How do they know she was dead when the vultures got her? There was nothing but bones left for an autopsy. The thought of her still being alive when they started pecking her apart creeps me out to no end :(

When I die I dont want to be buried I want to be left in a field so buzzards can eat me. When they're done, just throw my bones in the trash.

she fell 300 meters on stone - i think we can be sure that she died from that

but i wonder how the vultures got her out of her clothes

Thats what I was wondering. the gendarmes said all they found was clothes and bones. They plucked her feet out of her shoes? if they were still on.
Poor woman.
