Flock of giant California condors trashes woman’s home

[@kustomhooligans]

That's amazing there is a FLOCK OF THEM! In 1985 there were only 27 left in existence and the Sam Diego Zoo bred them in captivity and in 1995 started releasing them into the wild. We now have just over 500 California Condors in the wild, thanks to the efforts! For such a tiny group of 500 in the wild, it's great to see 15 or 20 hanging out together. That must mean theres more than just the 500 they originally believed to exist.

[@blairbushproject]

They used to live there. That is their habitat.

I'm sooo jealous! I just saw a beautiful condor for the first time in Big Sur 😍 she was a juvenile not to far from me just sitting on a branch. Such an incredible species

[@ladysmith7747]

I had barn swallows that made their nest in my front doorway every year. I tried quite a few things but they were more persistent than I was. By the time that I sold the house after seventeen years we were good friends. I told the new owners that the birds were not going to leave and to just accept them.

[@janetannerevans2320]

they eat close to 1000 insects a day each. You should have been grateful to have them. The Italians consider them good luck. Can't imagine doing anything to dissuade them from my house. Glad they beat you.

They go where dead bodies lay

[@johngulino2651]

We trashed the condors’ home. And they were here long, long, LONG before we were. 😩

[@toddlogg]

It's not really us that caused it. They've been in decline since the Ice Age when mammoths, Mastodon, Sabertooth cats, and Dire wolves and died out in North America. They got as big as they are because they adapted to being able to feast on large carcasses regularly. They're honestly an animal that was meant to go extinct but we're keeping them around in a world they're no longer adapted to which is almost as sad as them going extinct.

This is what happens when you disrupt nature. this place belonged to the condors before she built her home there so she's the squatter.. deal with it or move on.

Are you prepared to give your home up to whatever creatures lived there in years past. Probably not! Pretty silly logic.

Ya just gotta think like a Condor. Conditioning and compromise. There must be a gazillion of us that would come build roosts, install motion sensor water sprinklers etc..

It’s like the aftermath of a college frat party but with giant birds

[@galileykwong7017]

I will pay money to visit their house.

[@BebeesHuman]

What a crazy problem! Those birds weigh 19 pounds and more, and have 10 foot wing spans. The metal railings around the sundeck are very inviting bird perches. Most trees can't hold size bird. Could the birds be lured away, at a distance from the house, with some kind of condor playground? Old school playground equipment might work. Some razored-barbed wire could protect the house, but the house would look terrible. And doing such things would be expensive. Good luck with the problem.
