Asked by Wiki User

A California condor's length ranges from 43 to 55 inches (or 109 to 140 centimeters).

Their weight can range from 15 to 31 pounds (or 7 to 14.1 kilograms), though they usually weigh between 18 to 20 pounds (or 8 to 9 kilograms).

Their wingspan ranges from 8.2 to 9.8 feet (or 2.49 to 3 meters). Despite this fact, wingspans up to 11 feet or 3.4 meters have been reported. However, the longest wingspan that has been verified is 10 feet or 3.05 meters. All being said, California condors have the greatest wingspan of any North American bird.
