Back to All Condor Bios
Loading bio data
Sottow (962) whose nickname means “black”, was named by the local Rumsen Tribe. This condor is one of the two females in a cohort with five other males. What she clearly lacks in size is made up for in intelligence! Sottow always manages to find the right time and position to join feeding frenzies and manages to pick herself some high-quality meat chunks. Other condors will try to steal her food but witty Sottow (962) always manages to run away and gulp the food down just in time. “Work smarter, not harder” appears to be Sottow (962)'s motto!

Pronounced: SO-toe (final sound ends abruptly)
