[pct-l] California Condors

[Tortoise73 at charter.net (Tortoise)]

As i recall, there were also many legitimate dedicated environmentalists 
and lovers of wild creatures who oppossed capturing all the wild condors 
for the captive breeding program.

Fortunately there fears did not come to pass and the program is 
sucessful so far.

But there is still a big danger from the Bush leagurs.
