I find it quite interesting that Belizeans say 'jankro' too.
Yup, I had to link like 35 words Jamaicans and Belizeans say the same. We are real similar, yet still very different.
Thanks a lot for your contributions. We really appreciate it. If you dont mind me asking, how did you find out about Wiwords?

Hola <br /> I am from Panama and in the Caribbean side of the country the english speaking communities also call the vultures "YanKro" suposedly as a corruption of "Giant Crow"<br /> I am amazed of how little I knew about caribbean cultures! Thanks a lot for the blog!!!
Jankro is usually always seen in belize
Jankro is also a name of a god given by some Nigerians to their unseen cult god, this confraternity in Nigeria is represented by a merciless vulture and that must be ''Jankro''
Heard of the one with the white on his head known as the pastor Johncrow that has to pray over the meat b4 the others can start eating
Saw these birds in Jamaica recently never seen one before can anyone name them and what species
Could you please explain me the saying I found in a book "Indipendent Jankro fly high"? Thank you.
