Exciting news. I was living in Southern California from the mid-80s to mid-90s and remember the condor breeding program and initial releases well! It is always great to see this kind of restoration succeed. And what magnificent birds they are!
Me too! I used to attend the annual Condor Watch and Tequila Bust (before the breeding program started), and knew the first captive breeding program director, Lloyd Kiff.
Beautiful essay and true story! Thank you for this excellent news and information

This was such a treat to read today. With the constant barrage of terrible things happening, reading this gave me joy. Thank you for this.
I do hope Oregon doesn’t sell ammunition with lead in it. That causes a lit of condor deaths.
Unfortunately, I believe we do. Another goal to work towards in support of these magnificent creatures
