My Condor Bios
In Memoriam
Every condor on this page was known to us. We tracked them, watched them nest, and in many cases raised them from chicks. Their loss is deeply felt. But each death also teaches us something. Through our tracking and monitoring efforts, we recover deceased condors from the field and submit them for necropsy, helping the recovery program identify and address the threats these birds face. Most of the birds on this page died of lead poisoning. It remains the single greatest threat to condor recovery, and it is the one threat we can do something about.
These deaths are preventable.
If you hunt or ranch in the condor range, we will give you free non-lead ammunition. Since 2012 we've supplied hunters and ranchers across ten counties, and there are three ways to get a box. See if you qualify.
If you don't hunt, you can still help. Your support funds the ammunition program, the tracking that recovers these birds, and the field work that keeps the rest of the flock alive. Support condor recovery.
