Are vultures the new drones?

The people in charge of Peru's capital, Lima, have a new way to catch people dumping rubbish and litter; and it's got wings!

They have trained up ten vultures to fly around the city wearing video cameras fitted with tracking systems, just like drones.

The video is then watched to help authorities find out who is leaving rubbish in places they're not supposed to.

It's hoped the birds will help more people to recycle and dispose of their rubbish properly.

Take a look at these feathered litter fighters.
