Gymnogyps californianus (species) (Gymnogyps (genus), Cathartidae (family), ... Living Organisms (hierarchy name)) |
|
Note: Vulture species formerly common in the mountains of the western United States. Once nearly extinct, the species has been sustained by breeding in captivity. A carefully controlled conservation program has led to inreasing numbers of birds released into the wild.

Additional Notes: |
|
| Dutch ..... Giersoort die vroeger veel voorkwam in de bergen in het westen van de Verenigde Staten. Ooit was de soort vrijwel uitgestorven, maar door broedprogramma's in gevangenschap is hij in stand gehouden. Dankzij een zorgvuldig gecontroleerd conserveringsprogramma worden er steeds meer van de vogels weer in het wild uitgezet. |
