Vulture
Cathartidae/Accipitridae
Vultures are large scavenging birds found on every continent except Antarctica and Oceania. As nature's cleanup crew, they play a vital role in ecosystems by consuming carrion that would otherwise spread disease. Vultures have incredibly strong stomach acid — up to 10 times more acidic than human stomach acid — allowing them to safely eat rotting meat contaminated with anthrax, botulism, and cholera.
Fun Fact
Vultures urinate on their own legs — this isn't poor hygiene; the uric acid kills bacteria picked up from carcasses, and the evaporation cools their legs. It's a clever adaptation called urohydrosis.
Viper
Viperidae
Vipers are a family of venomous snakes found on every continent except Antarctica, Australia, and remote islands. There are over 330 species, all characterized by long, hinged fangs that fold against the roof of the mouth and spring forward to strike. Vipers include some of the most beautiful and deadly snakes — from the emerald-green eyelash viper to the massive gaboon viper with the longest fangs of any snake.
Fun Fact
The gaboon viper has fangs up to 2 inches long — the longest of any venomous snake — and produces more venom in a single bite than any other snake species.
Vicuña
Vicugna vicugna
The vicuña is a wild South American camelid that produces the finest, most luxurious natural fiber in the world — softer than cashmere and warmer than virtually any other wool. Living at altitudes of 12,000-18,000 feet in the Andes, vicuñas are the wild ancestors of the domesticated alpaca. They were sacred to the Inca, who held royal "chaku" roundups to shear them.
Fun Fact
Vicuña wool is so fine and rare that a vicuña scarf can cost over $1,500 and a coat over $20,000. The Inca reserved vicuña fiber exclusively for royalty — commoners wearing it could be punished by death.

The vulture is the most recognizable V animal — a critical scavenger in ecosystems worldwide. In clip art, vultures range from the dramatic Andean condor (technically a New World vulture) to the bald-headed turkey vulture circling overhead. Their spread-wing silhouette makes for striking desert and savanna illustrations. The viper family of snakes includes some of the most visually dramatic reptiles: the gaboon viper with its geometric patterns, the eyelash viper in vivid green or yellow, and the pit viper with its heat-sensing pits.
The vampire bat brings Halloween and spooky-themed energy to clip art with its fanged face and outstretched wings. The vicuña, a graceful relative of the llama found in the high Andes, has one of the finest coats in the animal kingdom. The vaquita, the world's most endangered marine mammal, is a tiny porpoise with distinctive dark eye rings that appears in conservation illustrations. Other V animals include the vervet monkey, the vole (a small woodland rodent), the vine snake, and various colorful species of the violet-backed starling.
