How many condors were there in 1980s?
In the 1980's, there were approximately 25 birds left in the wild.
Why is it that there are approximately 200 California condors left in the wild?
California condors have a very low natural birthrate even under good conditions; they do not become sexually mature until they are 6-8 years old, they lay only one egg per nesting cycle, and may not nest every year. The birds were shot carelessly by Euro-American settlers, but lead poisoning appears to have been a big factor in their decline. As carrion feeders, the condors may have ingested lead bullets that led to their poisoning and death. In the 1980s, there were fewer than 20 California condors left; these were captured for a captive breeding program that has met with success. The California condors in the wild are descendants of the successful captive breeding program.
