Photo by kiliiiyuyan / A California condor spreads its wings as it feeds on a calf carcass near Big Sur, California. Donated stillborn calves are often set out by conservation organizations to provide a source of food free from the contamination of lead bullets. Although condors are one of the conservation world's great successes, they remain on life support, needing to be purged of toxic lead every few years. California's state law today requires all ammunition to be lead-free. Follow me kiliiiyuyan, for more from the interaction between people and the natural world. #condor #california #bigsur
