Scavengers are animals that feed on carrion or refuse, rather than kill their own prey.

Hyenas, vultures, and raccoons are all scavengers. Other animals such as owls and rats can act as scavengers, although they may be carnivores or omnivores.

"Bottom feeders" such as catfish and some crabs are scavengers.

Some other animals that can be scavengers are:

Wedge-tailed Eagle

Dingo

Jackal

Crow

Shark (there are many)

Crabs

Maggots (Fly Larvae)

Goannas

Flathead(a fish in Australia)

Heksia (found in Africa)
Vultures, carrion crows

Animals that can recycle?

Well, organisms that "recycle" dead matter are called decomposers. Some examples of decomposers are bacteria, fungi, worms, and many other bugs. Sometimes, a scavenger can be mistaken for a decomposer, because it also helps clean up dead matter. Scavengers pick at or eat remains of dead organisms. Some examples of scavengers are hawks, foxes, and racoons. Hope this helped!
