/Sounds like "sah" (as in "salsa") + "MOO" (as in "moon") + "roh" (as in "row")/
Literally a black vulture from the Venezuelan plains, but in everyday speech it means someone who only shows up when there's something to gain from someone else's bad luck. The human zamuro circles overhead waiting for things to fall apart so they can swoop in.
“That vulture showed up right when the company was about to go under.”
“He swooped in like a vulture the moment he heard there was money involved.”
