Dear all,

There is an interesting item on Planet Ark's web site, from China, via Reuters. It seems that Condors are devouring large numbers of protected deer in a reserve near Beijing. Now, I know Condors are pretty good soarers, but making a crossing of the Pacific Ocean and the China Sea is a pretty amazing feat for a bird with the wing-load that the average Condor has. The article says that the Condors are more endangered than the Deer. I imagine that non-existence would make you quite endangered.Perhaps the problem is with Eagles? The item can be seen at http://planetark.org/wen/52337

Cheers,

Carl Clifford
