Given that condors forage exclusively on dead animals, they are especially susceptible to lead exposure from carcasses left in the field, and lead poisoning is often fatal for these and other carrion-eating birds.]]> 2017-03-15 10:53:49 UTC https://padlet.com/amyh5/6vf645b7ez14/wish/160206527 https://padlet.com/amyh5/6vf645b7ez14/wish/160207012 2017-03-15 10:56:33 UTC https://padlet.com/amyh5/6vf645b7ez14/wish/160207012 they have a wingspan of 9.5 feet and weighing up to 25 pounds https://padlet.com/amyh5/6vf645b7ez14/wish/160207777 2017-03-15 11:00:14 UTC https://padlet.com/amyh5/6vf645b7ez14/wish/160207777 only 23 condors survived world-wide.

404 in 2012, 30 years later
 
Lead based ammunition used by hunters and other groups are poisoning carcasses that the condors feed on, thus killing off the wild population.
 
All surviving birds removed from captivity in 1987, intensive conservation program including reintroduction and release of captive bred birds, a tiny but overall increasing population trend has occurred.
 
Need to be at least 6 years old to breed
