Do you see yourself as the Vulture?




The photo in the mail is the "Pulitzer prize" winning photo taken during the Sudan Famine in 1994. The picture depicts a famine stricken child crawling towards a United Nations Food Camp, located a kilometer away.

The Vulture is waiting for the child to die so he can eat it. This picture shocked the whole world. No one knows what happened to the child , including the photographer Kevin Carter who left the place soon as the photo was taken.

Kevin Carter later committed suicide due to depression!

  1. Its just so sad. I know he recieved alot of critism for not doing anything to help the child but I read that he did chase the vulture away.
