There are less than 10000 Andean condors, the largest birds of prey, left in the world. They live up to 70 years, pair up for life and care for their chicks for years... Absolutely amazing (and very ugly when being face to face with them as happened to us today on a hiking trail 😅) birds!

Today, we had the luck to see four of them (partially very, very) close - three in this video.

I just watched a good 25 minute doco on the efforts to save the condor in Argentina. There’s only about a thousand of these gigantic birds left in Argentina and a band of dedicated conservationists are working hard to arrest the decline.
