  • Trade in Andean Condor Vulture Gryphus Feathers and Body Parts in the City of Cusco and the Sacred Valley, Cusco Region, Peru Robert S
    Vulture News 61 September 2011 Trade in Andean Condor Vulture gryphus feathers and body parts in the city of Cusco and the Sacred Valley, Cusco region, Peru Robert S. R. Williams1*, Jose Luis Jara1, Daphne Matsufuiji2 and Anahi Plenge2 1Frankfurt Zoological Society and the Andean Condor Working Group – Peru 2Clorinda Matto de Turner 305, Urb. Magisterio, Cusco, Peru *Corresponding author: [email protected] Summary The sale of Andean Condor feathers and body parts is undertaken openly in the tourist markets of Cusco and the Sacred Valley. This trade is illegal but there is no enforcement of existing legislation. We visited the main tourist markets of the region to ascertain the extent of the trade, reasons motivating it and value. We found condor feathers for sale in 26 establishments. Feathers were sold singly, decorated and incorporated in handicrafts. Prices ranged from 5 soles for a small body feather to 160 soles for a main primary and we found handicrafts for sale at prices of up to 650 soles (featuring 6 feathers). We were offered a whole condor for sale at a market in Cusco for 2,500 soles. Investigations revealed that there are condor hunters working to supply this trade in both the Cordillera Vilcabamba and Cordillera Vilcanota and that the town of Calca is the base of much of the handicraft production. The trade is mainly based on three uses: alternative healing, shamanic ceremonies and souvenirs. It is crucial that the Peruvian authorities honour their commitments under international conventions and act immediately to stop this illegal trade, which is further threatening a species that is already in a precarious situation.

  • A Condor from the Upper Pliocene of Kansas
    338 Vol. 61 A CONDOR FROM THE UPPER PLIOCENE OF KANSAS By HARRISON B. TORDOFF Until recently, vulture remains were absent from the collection of several hundred fossil avian bones collected over the past twenty years by Claude W. Hibbard and his associatesin Kansas. This gap in the otherwise fairly complete Rexroad avifauna of the Upper Pliocene was filled in the summer of 1958, when Hibbard’s party found a tarso- metatarsus in nearly perfect condition. The bone is that of an undescribed American vulture which was larger than a modern King Vulture (Sarcoramphus papa) but smaller than a California Condor (Gymnogyps californa'anus). The fossil and Recent speciesof the Cathartidae are well known through the careful work of Loye Miller, Hildegarde Howard, and Harvey I. Fisher, whose researchesprovide a sound basis for study of this new vulture. The Rexroad speciesappears to parallel Teratornis merriami in some respects.Never- theless, it clearly belongs to the Cathartidae rather than to the Teratornithidae because it has the following distinctively cathartid characteristics (Miller and Howard, 1938: 169) : Facet for metatarsal I faces posterolaterally rather than posteriorly as in Terator- nithidae; intercotylar tuberosity high and conspicuous, not low and rounded; hypo- tarsal block not as symmetrically quadrangular as in Teratornithidae and separated from head of tarsometatarsus by a narrow groove, rather than by a broad, smooth de- pression; excavation of shaft on anterior face below head deep and sharply vaulted proximally, instead of blending into head as in Teratornithidae (Cathartes, however, re- sembles the Teratornithidae in this respect, rather than its relatives in the Cathartidae).

  • Biography of a "Feathered Pig": the California Condor Conservation
    Journal of the History of Biology 37: 557–583, 2004. 557 Ó 2004 Kluwer Academic Publishers. Printed in the Netherlands. Biography of a ‘‘Feathered Pig’’: The California Condor Conservation Controversy PETER S. ALAGONA Department of History Institute of the Environment University of California, Los Angeles USA E-mail: [email protected] Abstract. In the early 20th century, after hundreds of years of gradual decline, the California condor emerged as an object of intensive scientific study, an important conservation target, and a cultural icon of the American wilderness preservation movement. Early condor researchers generally believed that the species’ survival de- pended upon the preservation of its wilderness habitat. However, beginning in the 1970s, a new generation of scientists argued that no amount of wilderness could prevent the condor’s decline and that only intensive scientific management - including captive breeding - could save the species from certain extinction. A bitter and highly politicized battle soon developed over how to best preserve the condor. For 5 years the condor was extinct in the wild; however, by the time that officials released the first captive-bred birds the condor recovery program had garnered widespread public support, even among its former critics. Today, condor advocates from the scientific and activist communities work together to manage the species and protect its habitat. The condor’s story illus- trates some of the tensions, problems, and successes that have accompanied the rise of conservation biology as a scientific field and environmental movement in the United States. Keywords: California condor, conservation biology, endangered species, wildlife man- agement Introduction On Easter Sunday 1987, a team of scientists, conservationists, and government officials finally caught up with Adult Condor-9, a 7-year old male California condor (Gymnogyps californianus) that had previously demonstrated an uncanny ability to evade his would-be captors (Fig- ure 1).

  • The Andean Condor (Vultur Gryphus) ​ ​
    Meghan Sullivan Sophomore College Final Paper 10/16/16 The Andean Condor (Vultur gryphus) ​ ​ Introduction A common theme throughout our readings in the Patagonia Sophomore College was the negative impact of humans on animals. Indeed, many conservation problems arise because of human carelessness. This is true for the Andean Condor of Patagonia, which in the past has been hunted excessively by humans. Even though this problem has been addressed, the Andean Condor still faces population decline. In recent years, the number of tourists visiting Torres del Paine National Park has risen by 1400% between the years of 1986 and 2006. (Herrmann et al 2010: 6) If humans do negatively impact condors, then now more than ever, measures should be put in place to mitigate the effect. This research paper explores the relationship of humans and Andean Condors today. It will attempt to determine if human impact still negatively affects the Andean Condor population. Background At a wingspan of up to 10 ft, a height of up to 4 ft, and a weight of around 30 lbs, the Andean Condor is the largest flying bird in the world. It is known for it’s bald head, black body feathers, and white feather collar which is found only on the males. (National Geographic 2016) Man compared to Andean Condor (National Geographic 2016) Male Andean Condor (National Geographic 2016) They can be found from the Patagonian region of South America all the way to Ecuador. However, the population is not evenly distributed throughout these areas. As the Andean Condor Condor territory stretches more north, the population decreases.

  • California Condor (Gymnogyps Californianus) 5-Year Review
    California Condor (Gymnogyps californianus) 5-Year Review: Summary and Evaluation U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service Pacific Southwest Region June 2013 Acknowledgement: The Service gratefully acknowledges the commitment and efforts of the California Condor Recovery Program partners for their many on-going contributions towards condor recovery. Our partners were instrumental both in ensuring that we used the best available science to craft our analyses and recommendations in this 5-year review and in providing individual feedback that was used to refine this document. Photo Credit: Unless otherwise indicated, all photos, charts, and graphs are products of the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service Page | 2 5-YEAR REVIEW California condor (Gymnogyps californianus) I. GENERAL INFORMATION Purpose of 5-Year Reviews: The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (Service) is required by section 4(c)(2) of the Endangered Species Act of 1973, as amended (Act) to conduct a status review of each listed species at least once every 5 years. The purpose of a 5-year review is to evaluate whether or not the species’ status has changed since it was listed (or since the most recent 5-year review). Based on the 5- year review, we recommend whether the species should be removed from the Lists of Endangered and Threatened Wildlife, changed in status from endangered to threatened, or changed in status from threatened to endangered. Our original listing as endangered or threatened is based on the species’ status considering the five threat factors described in section 4(a)(1) of the Act. These same five factors are considered in any subsequent reclassification or delisting decisions.

There are two types of soaring: thermal soaring, used by condors and frigatebirds, 33 which involves the use of updrafts over the land or the sea to ascend and then glide horizontally; and 34 dynamic soaring, used by albatrosses, which involves the use of wind speed differences with height above 35 the sea surface.

  • New World Vultures Vs. Old World Vultures
    New World Vultures vs. Old World Vultures There are two different groups of vultures, New World vultures (from the continents of North and South America) and Old World vultures (from Europe, Africa, and Asia). Vultures are a great example of convergent evolution, or the development of similar animals that occupy the same niche, but are not related. New World vultures include 7 species from 5 different genus; the black vulture, turkey vulture, king vulture, greater and lesser yellow-headed vultures, the Andean condor, and the California condor. Old World vultures include 16 species from 9 different genus; the cinereous vulture, lammergeier (or bearded vulture), palm-nut vulture, griffon vulture, Indian white-rumped vulture, Ruppell’s vulture, long-billed vulture, slender-billed vulture, Himalayan griffon vulture, white-backed vulture, cape vulture, Egyptian vulture, red-headed vulture, lappet-faced vulture, and the white-headed vulture. Vultures have an important role in their habitats because they feed primarily on carrion, or the flesh of dead animals. They are particularly good scavengers as they can fly and cover a greater distance than scavengers that are on foot. There are two main similarities between the two groups of vultures. They both have naked heads, or very few feathers on their heads. This is because they often stick their heads inside carcasses to pull out meat, and they get very messy. It is easier to keep a baldhead clean. This cuts down on bacteria that could grow in their feathers and make them sick. The second similarity is the large wingspan that makes them able to fly at high altitudes and soar on thermals in order to find their next meal.
