The condors wait each morning for the Sunrise to cause thermals before they attempt to fly. Riding the thermals without needing to move their wings mean energy is saved. Whilst soaring in circles over a large area, the condor is on the look out for carrion. A dead animal will soon attract many condors, who, with much squabbling, land to feed on the corpse.

Condors belong to the family Cathartidae, which includes the New World vultures. This family is characterized by their scavenging habits and social behavior. Condors are large birds known for their impressive wingspans and play a crucial role in their ecosystems by consuming carrion. There are two main species of condors: the California condor and the Andean condor.

They live in California (California condor)
California condors do not actually build a nest, they lay a single egg on the floor of a cave, in a tree, or on a ledge.
California condors and Andean condors are distinct species with significant differences in their genetics, behavior, and habitats. While they can be bred in captivity, successful mating in the wild is unlikely due to these differences and their specific mating rituals. Hybridization between the two species is rare and not well-documented, indicating that they are not naturally inclined to mate. Thus, while theoretically possible in controlled environments, successful mating between them in nature is improbable.
