Wings Over the World October 18, 2008
A condor release event to benefit Ventana Wildlife Society.
Below are photos from the 2008 Wings Over the World event.
Footage of condor #251 release October 18, 2008
Condor #251 is a seven and a half year old male hatched at the Los Angeles Zoo . He was released in Big Sur on December 12, 2002. He was captured last spring and held at our holding pen because he was interfering with a breeding pair in Big Sur. Now that the nesting season is coming to a close he can be re-released back into the wild.
