The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service and other government agencies publish proposed actions which citizens can influence. You can follow petitions for species and habitat designations, proposed studies and findings. You can even make your voice heard and have an impact. When the USFWS and other agencies publish their intentions, they usually invite the public to write or email. Often public hearings are announced which you may attend and even address for the record. Comments, written and voiced, are recorded and considered. They can and have influenced decisions. Stay informed with the Ivory Bill Bald Eagle Haliaeetus leucocephalus , Robert Ridgway Congress prohibited killing eagles in 1940. In 1963, 417 nesting Bald Eagle pairs were counted in the lower 48 States. They were listed as endangered south of the 40th parallel in 1967 and in 43 States in 1973. In 1999, it was estimated almost 6,000 pairs were nesting in the lower 48 States and the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service proposed to delist the Bald Eagle. California Condor Gymnogyps californianus California Condors were listed as endangered in 1967. By 1982, there were less than two dozen in the wild. Mating Condor pairs produce only one egg every two years. Rescued from the brink of extinction by an intense captive breeding program, as of October 1, 2003 there was a total wild population of 83 and 137 in captivity. With a wingspan of over 9 feet, California Condors can soar more than 100 miles per day on updrafts searching for food. They have a life span of up to 60 years.

HOME ENTERTAINMENT PAPER CRAFTS RARE ANIMALS ... CALIFORNIA CONDOR : ABOUT RED LIST CALIFORNIA CONDOR ABOUT RED LIST We hope you will enjoy our selection of "Rare Animals of the World" ANIMAL GUIDE ABOUT RED LIST CALIFORNIA CONDOR The Red List is the material prepared by IUCN (International Union for Conservation of Nature) classifying various threatened wild animals of the world and reporting their present habitat status. The List evaluates the extinction risk level of each individual species from a biological viewpoint, but it possesses no legal power to enforce regulations concerning threatened species. The Red List is broadly employed as fundamental information in advancing the preservation of threatened wild animals. Referring to the original Red List, the Environment Agency of Japan has compiled the Japanese edition of the List listing threatened taxa inhabiting Japan. 2000 EDITION of the RED LIST CATEGORIES are classified as follows: EXTINCT EX A taxon whose last individual has died. EXTINCT IN THE WILD EW A taxon whose last individual in the wild has died.

63. Endangered Species The california condor is listed as endangered by the endangered Species Act, theIUCN/World Conservation Union, and Appendix 1 of CITES. J. Humboldt penguin. http://www.seaworld.org/infobooks/Endangered/esVI.html

Endangered Species Profiles A. Gorilla. 1. Species distribution. The single species of gorilla (Gorilla gorilla) is divided into three subspecies. The subspecies G. g. gorilla is the western lowland gorilla found in Nigeria, Cameroon, parts of the Central African Republic, mainland Equatorial Guinea, Gabon, Conga, and the extreme western tip of Zaire. The eastern lowland gorilla (G. g. graueri) is found in east-central Zaire. The mountain gorilla (G. g. beringei) is restricted to the six extinct volcanoes of the Virunga Range on the Zaire-Rwanda-Uganda border. 2. Reasons for endangerment. Reasons for the gorillas' decline include habitat loss due to human encroachment (mostly for agriculture) and poaching for their hands, heads, and meat. 3. Conservation efforts. Gorillas are classified as endangered by the Endangered Species Act and are on Appendix I of CITES. The eastern lowland gorilla and the mountain gorilla are listed as endangered by the IUCN/World Conservation Union. The western lowland gorilla is listed as vulnerable by the IUCN/World Conservation Union. The western lowland gorilla is part of an SSP program with 50 participating institutions, including Busch Gardens in Tampa. The gorilla SSP, the IUCN/World Conservation Union's SSC Primate Specialist Groups, the AZA, and IUDZG have joined to condemn any action which would increase demand for, and trade in, gorillas from Africa.

California's Endangered Animals by Jessica Gresham Go back to Yosemite Sixth Grade Page other Endangered Animal report by Caitlin Date An endangered animal is an animal that is not living well in its environment and habitat. Once endangered, the animal can become extinct. Some of the animals that are endangered are Mountain Beavers, Foxes, Mice, Rats, Bald Eagles, Peregrine Falcons, Geese, Owls, Pelicans, Sparrows, Lizards, Snakes, Coyotes, Tortoises, Turtles, Sierran Birds, and the California Condor. Animals become endangered for many reasons. Sometimes the land that they live on becomes cropland, or maybe the animals are very small and a lot of predators get to them; sometimes their habitat is destroyed as in flooding or cutting down trees, etc. But a lot of the time people either kill the animals or kick them out of their habitat, so that people can have farmland. This report is going to be about several different types of endangered animals and how humans have made these species more endangered. Here are some examples of remaining populations of different endangered animals. In all there are only 87 California Condors. Only three of them live in the wild, and 84 live in breeding facilities. Thirteen California Condors were reintroduced to the wild, but five of them have died, and another 5 were taken back to breeding facilities. Nobody knows what is making Sierran Birds have such a low population. Thirty-seven species of animals have become extinct since the 1880’s. One hundred six animal species are officially endangered or threatened. One third of the mammals are in danger because irrigation has changed their habitats. By the early 1920’s California’s gray wolves and Grizzly bears were extinct.

HOME >> Magazine >> 2000 Issues >> November-December ... Crissy Field Restoration Endangered Species Lead Kills Five Condors at the Grand Canyon Scientists hope incident is an anomaly in successful program G Sixteen reintroduced California condors were captured and treated for lead poisoning in Grand Canyon National Park this summer after five birds were either found or presumed dead from the substance. The incident suggests that the birds may be becoming victims of their own success. Though scientists could not pinpoint the source of the lead, they suspect the birds fed on an animal carcass full of lead shot-showing that they are increasingly finding their own food sources instead of relying on carcasses left by the recovery team. "We hope what happened out there is an anomaly," said Shawn Farry, The Peregrine Fund's Arizona manager for the project. Farry's team has observed the birds feeding together and suspects the poisoning could come from a single carcass, although they don't exactly know where the carcass was located because the radio collar signals used to track the condors are interrupted when they fly below the canyon's rim. Scientists can only speculate as to why the carcass was full of lead shot. Hunting is allowed on some federal lands surrounding the Grand Canyon, but no big game seasons were open when the birds began dying in June. Bill Heinrich, species restoration manager for The Peregrine Fund, said that it's possible the birds found the carrion on private land.

StudyWorks News Science News Environmental News Archives of Environmental News ... Earth Observatory Condor Chick Hatches in the Wild California Condor. Photography by David Clendenen, courtesy of US Fish and Wildlife Service. A California condor chick has hatched in the wild for the first time since the enormous birds were reintroduced into their natural habitat. The baby bird hatched on June 22 from an egg that was laid in captivity in the Los Angeles Zoo but was transported to a family of reintroduced birds in Los Padres National Forest near Santa Barbara, California. The chick was aided by its new mother, who helped pry open the shell, spun the egg, and watched as the hatchling dropped out. She has been hovering over the chick and keeping it warm since its birth. This is the first condor birth in the wild since 1984. This is the first year that the released condors are of reproductive age. One egg was found in a nest in northern Arizona last March but was cracked. Currently 60 of the world's 161 California condors live outside of zoos. Condors became extinct in the wild when the remaining nine were removed into zoos in 1984. The release program was begun in 1992 when the bird populations had recovered sufficiently in captivity. The goal of the release program, a partnership between the federal government and several private organizations, is to have two separate populations, one in southern California and one in northern Arizona, each with about 150 birds, including 15 breeding pairs.

Search Condors In The Wild Milestones in California Condor Conservation In Carl Koford began studying California condors , establishing the general biological characteristics of the species, particularly their reproductive biology . Reasons for the condor's decline were determined to be shooting, pesticide poisoning, and habitat disappearance. About 150 birds remained in the wild. In San Diego Zoo Director Belle Benchley and Curator K.C. Lint proposed a captive breeding program for condors based on Lint's success at breeding Andean condors using double-clutching. A permit was issued to capture a pair of juveniles but the plan was thwarted by environmentalists opposed to disturbing any of the wild birds. In Congress passed the Endangered Species Preservation Act and the Secretary of the Interior was charged with developing a register of endangered species. In the California condor was included on the first official published list of endangered species. Population estimates ranged from 50 to 60 birds.

Watch Earth Matters on CNN and CNN International. Rare condors released in Arizona Bird-lovers seek to save endangered species December 12, 1996 Web posted at: 11:00 p.m. EST VERMILLION CLIFFS, Arizona (CNN) Six young California condors soared into the Arizona sky Thursday, more than 70 years after the last time the bird was spotted in the region. (1MB/26 sec. QuickTime movie The condors, with a wing span of 9 1/2 feet, are the largest and rarest bird in North America. They also are among the most endangered birds in the world. The California condors had flown over Arizona's majestic Vermillion Cliffs for thousands of years, feeding on carcasses of saber-toothed tigers and woolly mammoths. But humans pushed the giant birds toward the brink of extinction. They shot, poached and poisoned California condors until only nine birds remained by 1985, all in captivity. None of the birds had been seen in their former Grand Canyon stomping grounds since 1924. The birds released Thursday spent six weeks getting used to their new surroundings, testing their wings in a spacious pen at the edge of the towering cliffs. Five were hatched and reared last summer at the Los Angeles Zoo, and the sixth came from the World Center for Birds of Prey in Boise, Idaho. Government officials, biologists, bird-watchers and wildlife enthusiasts crowded around to catch a glimpse of the birds when they were released.

"Just last month the Bush Administration nearly tripled commercial logging on our national forests in the entire Sierra Nevada, with the stroke of a pen," said Mary Wells, executive director of the California Wilderness Coalition. "On top of that they are trying to log illegally in California's roadless forests, drill for oil in endangered California condor habitat, and log in the Giant Sequoia National Monument." California's 10 Most Threatened Wild Places for 2004 are: Sierra Nevada Forests - Bush Administration revoked Forest Service's Sierra Framework; substitute plan allows widespread logging throughout the Sierra, even old-growth areas. Private company's plan to clearcut its own 1 million acres is further degrading water and habitat for rare wildlife.

Numbering 30 in the wild in Arizona, California condors are commonly seen along the North and South Rims of Grand Canyon National Park. Restoration of the species in Arizona began in 1996, and in 2001 a condor laid an egg in the park, which later broke (below). In February 2002, two condor pairs nested below the South Rim, again raising hopes for successful reproduction of the species. elaine_leslie@nps.gov Wildlife Biologist, Grand Canyon National Park, Arizona Back to Chapter 6: Restoration Articles Restoration of mountain yellow-legged frogs in Kings Canyon By Harold Werner Breathing space at Lechuguilla Cave By Jason M.
