"Intoxicated Vultures Rescued and Rehabilitated in Connecticut"

TL;DR Summary
Two black vultures in Connecticut were found in rough shape and unable to fly, leading animal rescuers to suspect the worst. However, it was discovered that the vultures were actually intoxicated from consuming fermented substances while dumpster diving. After receiving fluids and a good night's rest, the vultures were able to fly away and rejoin their colony. The incident serves as a reminder to keep dumpsters closed to prevent wildlife from accessing harmful substances.
