California Condors - Livestream

Join this virtual event to learn about the ecology of California Condors and population recovery efforts from California Condor researchers Alacia Welch and Joe Burnett, two of the most experienced professionals in our region that are working to protect these iconic birds.

Since the 1980’s when only a couple dozen individuals survived, the California Condor has made an incredible recovery on our state’s Central Coast. There are now several hundred condors in the wild and in captivity, and wild populations continue a slow spread across California, Arizona, Utah and northern Mexico. Locally, Condors are being spotted further and further afield including in Big Sur and as far away as Mt. Diablo. But this incredible species is not out of the woods, and continues to be threatened with high mortality.

Alacia and Joe will provide updates on our local condor population that was first reintroduced at Pinnacles National Monument. We’ll learn about the habits of the California Condor and what we can do to help these animals on a continued road to recovery.
