Buzzie, Flaps, Ziggy, and Dizzy are minor characters of Disney's 1967 animated feature film The Jungle Book. They are vultures that appear to be a parody of the Beatles.
The Jungle Book
Close to the end of the film, after Mowgli escapes from Kaa, the four vultures are bored and trying to think of something to do (a running gag consists of Buzzie asking Flaps "so what are we gonna do?", only to get an "I don't know" in response). They eventually spot Mowgli and decide to investigate him, at first poking fun at his "stork"-like legs. Hurt, Mowgli walks away, not caring if they laughed, and the vultures feel sorry for him, sympathizing with him since they themselves aren't always the most popular animals in the jungle. To lift Mowgli's spirits, they sing "That's What Friends are For", accidentally giving Shere Khan enough time to discover and corner Mowgli. As Baloo holds off Shere Khan, the vultures take Mowgli to safety and then help him scare the fierce tiger away with fire. In the end, they remark how dull it's going to be without Mowgli around, and go back to wondering what they should do to pass the time.
The Jungle Book 2
The vultures once again appear in the jungle, this time accompanied by a new member, Lucky, who takes every opportunity he can get in making fun of Shere Khan. They are first seen as Shere Khan is making his way to the man village to extract revenge on Mowgli. The vultures introduce Shere Khan to Lucky who continues to make remarks until Shere Khan vanishes. Later on, Lucky begins to taunt Shere Khan yet again, but the Vultures, knowing Shere Khan's power, begin to worry and call Lucky back to the trees. He ignores their warnings and they begin to leave themselves until Lucky mentions Mowgli in the jungle. The vultures try to tell Shere Khan otherwise but to no avail. Right after Lucky is attacked and apparently killed, the other vultures fly away in horror (though at the near the end of the film it is revealed that he survived). Buzzie, Flaps, Ziggy, and Dizzy themselves don't appear more in the movie after they fled.
Who Framed Roger Rabbit
Flaps (one of the vultures) made a cameo appearance with the other Toons in a brief head shot on the left side of Cyril Proudbottom the horse during the final scene of Who Framed Roger Rabbit.
•Their number, appearance, hair, look, and talk are freely based on the British rock group The Beatles. During production, the development staff were considering the famous band to voice the four vultures. But because of extra work planning, John Lennon declined the offer.
•Their song "That's What Friends are For" is a barbershop-style song rather than the '60s classic rock one would expect from their Liverpool accents.
•The reason for their song not being in the style of '60s rock is because Walt Disney thought it would be too dated.
•Animator Will Finn used the Vultures as a reference when he animated Iago in Aladdin.
•As shown in concept art, there would have originally been a fifth vulture named "Beaky", but he was dropped. In The Jungle Book 2, he was replaced by another Vulture named Lucky.
•Flaps is the only vulture whose name is mentioned in the film, although Ziggy's name is also mentioned in the French dub.
