• California Condor Recovery Program
  California Condors Released in Grand Canyon Region
  http://www.peregrinefund.org/vermil.html
  "...an example of successful cooperation between private and public interests in the effort to save our largest flying bird from extinction. Once ranging over most of North America, by the early 1980s the California Condor population had been reduced to only seven birds left in the wild, none of which were breeding pairs. Today, through an innovative captive breeding program, the population has grown to nearly 150, with 38 of these majestic birds now soaring free over isolated wilderness areas in California and Arizona. Their survival now depends on our willingness to preserve the wild places that remain."  (Thanks to Steve Merit for his help with this listing).
