"San Diego Zoo's Animal Bytes: California Condor."Welcome to the San Diego Zoo. 21 Oct. 2009 .

The California Condor has its biggest threat from humans by the destruction of its habitat, hunting, and lead poisoning. this site gives plenty of information on the habitat of this creature and how it is being helped so that the condor isn't endangered anymore. It also gives a variety facts about the condor which we can use so that we have basic knowledge and can craft questions to our interviewee about the condor that we may not be able to find the answers to online.

"San Diego Zoo Conservation Research." Welcome to the San Diego Zoo. 21 Oct. 2009 .

This site is good because it various links to different articles written by the San Diego's Zoo Conservation Center about the condor and how it is being reintroduced into the wild. They also give information on how they are helping to provide a path way that can help this animal from becoming extinct. This site also provides descriptions of projects they are currently working on to help the bird be safer when released back into their natural habitat.

"NPCA | California Condor."National Parks Conservation Association | Protecting Our National Parks for Future Generations. 21 Oct. 2009 .

I liked this site because it gave information about how the condor is trying to survive in their own habitat. It gives lots of facts and even provides a brief history about the condor's living arrangements and how i cares for its young. Basically, I really like this site because it gives lots of facts that we will need to know in order to do our project.

"California Condor Reintroduction Program in Big Sur California." Big Sur Chamber of Commerce, Big Sur Lodging, Accommodations, Camping. 21 Oct. 2009

This site is informative and it provides information through informative videos. This site solely focuses on the history of the condor and how it is relevant in the native american culture. There is a video on this site that is dedicated to lead affecting the California condor. I think we will be able to get plenty of information from this site.
