Legends. This article is part of Legends: the expanded-universe stories that Lucasfilm set apart from canon in 2014.

The rock-vulture was a species of bird found on the planet Utapau in the Outer Rim Territories. In 19 BBY, the corpse of the Kaleesh cyborg Grievous—left lying on the landing platform where he was killed by Jedi Master Obi-Wan Kenobi—was untouched by the local rock-vultures, who were apparently unable to stomach him.
