Research for a stereotypically evil character

I chose a vulture because it is a predator with wings that are big, black and powerful.

I decided to make a vulture as my evil character because it was the first thing to come up on my mind.

I saw the film "Horton hears a Who!" which included a sinister vulture named Vlad in it and I liked his style.
