Dian (1011) is named for the groundbreaking female conservationist and primatologist, Dian Fossey, who took a hard stance against poaching and devoted her life to protecting primates in Rwanda. Dian (1011) was a more dominant bird in her cohort, usually being one of the first birds to eat. She also demonstrated an ability to stand her ground. During one observation, when Mike's Bird (566) nipped at Dian (1011) through the pen, she promptly retaliated by kicking at him causing him to back off.
After her release into the wild in 2021, Dian (1011) made her way over to Pinnacles National Park and appears to have integrated well into the social circle there. She is often seen soaring around the Pinnacles rock formations with other juvenile condors, including members of her release cohort Jane (1019), Rosalie (1036), Rachel (1042), and Iniko (1031).
