Volture is Angulu

Some call Vulture Ungulu others Angulu.It's there in the list.
We dont have anything like Susa in Hausa but Tsutsa.

Very interesting... I love Hausa language since the day I was born in early 90s.

Nice work, though I am finding it difficult to see if hausa, yoruba and igbo have close origin. Nothing in common with the interpretation of common objects.
