Questo è il secondo condor dei 6.

In Arizona, tracking and monitoring of large vultures (particularly the California condor, a member of the New World vulture family) officially began on December 12, 1996. On that historic day, six captive-bred condors were released and fitted with transmitters in the Vermilion Cliffs National Monument area to monitor their movements and promote the species' repopulation. This is the second of the six condors.
