It just wants to feast upon the remains of those who once lived. It has no incentive to attack humans, and, indeed, while doing so, provides a useful function for the local ecosystem. And India managed to almost completely kill off their population, and render half of the species of Old World Vultures critically endangered with an antibiotic.
I always get flocks of turkey vultures over my neighborhood

I woke up in a hospital one time, back in '07. Sitting on the ledge outside my window were perhaps a dozen vultures/buzzards.

I am partial to any bird that isn't trying to use my car for target practice.

You know, the vulture has an unusually good sense of smell for a bird, but I doubt it can smell death through concrete and window glass.
