Buzzie, Flaps, Dizzy, and Ziggy (also known as The Vultures) are a group of british birds who are one of the characters in Pooh's Adventures of The Jungle Book. They are the Disney parodies of the Beatles, although they sing like a barber shop group.
Role in the film[]
They're very friendly and funny birds who often like making jokes and sing songs. At the end of the film, they've notice Pooh and his friends walking past their territory and they asked him if they could join them on their adventures and Pooh said, "yes.", and that is how the Vultures join Pooh and his friends on their adventures created by DisneyDaniel93.

- Their number, appearance, hair, look, and talk are freely based on the British rock group; The Beatles. During production, the development staff had beside thoughts of the famous band to voice the four vultures. But because of an extra work planning, John Lennon declined the offer.
- Their song "That's What Friends are For" is a barbershop-style song rather than the 60's classic rock one would expect from their Liverpool accents.
- The reason for their song not being in the style of '60s rock is because Walt Disney thought it would be too dated.
- Animator Will Finn used the Vultures as a reference when he animated Iago in Aladdin.
- As shown in concept art, there would have originally been a fifth vulture named "Beaky", but he was dropped. In The Jungle Book 2, he was replaced by another Vulture named Lucky.
- Despite being the most talkative, Ziggy has the fewest lines of all the vultures in the original film. (In fact, at one point, he speaks with Flaps's voice.)
- The vultures are similar to The Crows from Dumbo, where they start off making fun of protagonists at their lowest lows as outcasts(Dumbo having big ears for the Crows, Mowgli having "stork-like" legs for the Vultures), and when it upsets the protagonists so badly they soon changed their attitudes and became more supportive of their respective protagonists. In Dumbo's case is due to Timothy Mouse's lecture about Dumbo's sad story, while for Mowgli's case it's the vultures' own decision to sympathize Mowgli.
- The vultures' portrayal as allies appear to be a complete subversion of the common portrayal of vultures as villainous animals in most fictional stories.
- In the 2016 version of the Jungle Book, vultures do appear, but unlike in the 1967 version, they are aligned with Shere Khan, following him, scavenging from his kills, and indicating his presence with screeching cries before he physically appears.
