I saw a Condor hiking one day, it was following a pair of Turkey vultures that swooped in close to give my puppy a look.. Turkey vultures can create huge shadows over you, I see them all the time, but that Condor was truly scary when it flew over me! I just froze for a couple of minutes! Lol

Condors and Vultures are some of my favorite birds ever, and it's always heartbreaking to hear what went on with Cali Condors. I've lived in California my whole life (SoCal deserty region) and I think I've only seen about 3 condors in my life (plus the time we found a wing of one in our backyard with no others trace of condor). They're all such underrated birds

[@xzodisanartistx7005]

Fun fact from a person that lives in Peru: Condor's have something really beautiful and sad about their mates, it is said that, once one of them is about to pass away, they both go to the most tallest mountian, and then they just let theirselfs throw from it, getting close to the ground, the one who is still going to live, spreed her/his wings to go up again, while the other just rest down. But this is just an story, I would like to see if it really happens, it would be so cool but sad to see a couple doing this edit: Ok, this is a lot of likes.

[@leoornstein3963]

That is a very sad, yet beautiful thing that an animal could do, if your story is true. Thank you for sharing the story sir.

[@SuperNurik89]

It's from a book. Not true

[@krasudreal3948]

We have the same story in Argentina, I've always wanted to know if it's true or not, but it's a great story.

That sounds poignant but I doubt it's true, animals don't have the grasp on the idea of commiting suicide. And how would they know their lifespan? They're not Gothitelles.

With mega-fauna extinct, and the massive, constantly replenished body counts from European "settlement" of the Americas long past, and with modern day military conflicts less frequent and generating carnage on nothing like the scale of earlier wars, our best hope for a resurgence in the condor population now rests solely with the Corona virus. If THAT turns out to be a dud, we'd best start keeping pets, children and very short people indoors.
