    When I was little I was afraid of them. My Dad took me aside and explained how important they are…and the Westerns that showed them eating living people were wrong. I once was lucky enough to see a big tree just full of them.

    This is a well-researched video, thank you for sharing, and for spreading the word about Condor conservation.

    I didn't know that Johnny Cash was a player in the story. That is really interesting, albeit sad that his role was rather deleterious. At least we got a good song out of it.

    Don't get me wrong at all, I respect all vultures (birds in general really) but I would put the bearded vulture ahead.
    Dude eats bones. Raw. Doesn't even chew. No other bird is that metal.
