The primary issue I see initially is the relatively short lead. The lead should summarize the whole article; right now a basic description and material on conservation and culture are missing.
The prose is choppy and many sentences should be combined. Example "The New World vultures comprise seven species in five genera. The genera are Coragyps, Cathartes, Gymnogyps, Sarcoramphus, and Vultur."
"Instead, they lay eggs on bare surfaces."; needs expanding. Does it nest on ledges on cliffs?

I've copy-edited the article for smoothness, so it's a little easier to read. Overall it seems quite a reasonable article in terms of coverage; my main feeling is that the lead should be extended slightly to reflect the article's contents, for instance of fossils.

Failed, almost entirely due to the short lead.
