Landels-Hill Big Creek Reserve

01 Apr, 05 PM - 01 Apr, 05 PM

California condors utilize sea lions as a significant source of food and are still effected by the presence of DDT in the marine food chain. As a result, their egg shells are too thin to retain moisture and are at risk of drying out. If a wild nest site is accessible, the egg is replaced with a captive-laid egg and the wild-laid egg is incubated in captivity. If the chick is hatched and develops in the wild, it is vaccinated for West Nile Virus before it fledges from the nest. Nests are monitored for success and health of the chicks and so collaboration with the Reserve manager is requested.
