Condor Release Sites

Condor Release Sites are designated locations where rehabilitated California condors are gradually reintroduced into their natural habitat. These sites are carefully selected based on suitable environmental conditions, available food sources, and minimal human disturbance. The goal is to help condors adapt to the wild, monitor their health and behavior, and ensure their survival. Releases often occur after a training period where condors learn to forage and avoid dangers like power lines or toxic waste. These sites are essential for the recovery and long-term conservation of the critically endangered species.
