In this video, Yurok Tribe Wildlife Director Tiana Williams-Claussen discusses the tragic, preventable loss of condor B7 to lead poisoning. In January, Northern California Condor Restoration Program (NCCRP) condor B7, Pey-noh-pey-o-wok' (I am friend or kind or good natured) was found dead in the remote backcountry of Redwood National Park. He had a lead air gun pellet in his gizzard and elevated lead levels in his blood. B7 is the first NCCRP condor to pass away. Lead from ammunition is the single largest threat to condors in the wild and is responsible for nearly half of free-flying condor mortalities for which the cause of death is known. Almost all poisonings are linked to carrion from lead-shot game, livestock, and vermin. A tiny lead bullet fragment is enough to kill not only a condor but also vultures and eagles, should they scavenge on remains of an animal killed with lead ammunition. These important scavengers remove carcasses from the landscape and are critical in reducing the spread of disease. While the use of lead bullets for hunting is illegal in California, condors are constantly exposed to the highly toxic metal via the avenues listed above. Most hunters have switched to non-lead ammunition. Additionally, hunters have always played a key role in the conservation of wildlife, including condors. When we leave offal from non-lead shot game in the field, it serves as a great food source for condors and other wildlife. For those interested in learning more about non-lead ammunition, please call the Yurok Wildlife Department at (707) 482-1350, or e-mail us at [email protected]. The Wildlife Department’s Hunters as Stewards Program staff are well versed in the particulars of making the switch Another great resource is https://huntingwithnonlead.org/. Currently, there are 17 condors flying free in Northern California and more will be released this summer. Similarly to our responsibility to protect rivers, forests, prairies and the ocean, we must all play a role in ensuring the success of the new flock. Through the recycling of nutrients, the condor is working for the health of the world. It is only right that we take care of the condor too. *Free flying condor footage courtesy of Wildlife Cinematographer Will Goldenberg *Transmitter clip courtesy of Matthew Falcon
