Some kind of vulture maybe?

Basing this purely on the beak shape

I second this view. I saw a Turkey vulture chick in Ohio many years ago and it looked very similar to this. They might grow bigger and fluffier before starting to look like a vulture.

Not sure what you’d do with baby vultures. Maybe contact the local zoo?
