They can’t function normally in their environment, so they’re more susceptible to predators, they can’t get their food, and slowly unfortunately that means they starve.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Goodnight said once a bird does show clinical signs of lead poisoning, it’s unlikely to recover. In this condor’s case, she’s gone through one round of treatment, five daily injections that pull the lead out of the blood. Now, Goodnight says, she’s waiting on test results to see if the lead levels have gone down enough, or if the bird will need another round of injections.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_17297\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\" style=\"max-width: 305px\">\u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/science/wp-content/uploads/sites/35/2014/05/DSC_2150.jpg\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\" wp-image-17297\" src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/science/wp-content/uploads/sites/35/2014/05/DSC_2150.jpg\" alt=\"Oakland Zoo Keeper Kristin Mealiffe holds the condor while Dr. Andrea Goodnight examines her.

The Ventana Wildlife Society, a non-profit involved in California condor conservation and research, has a \u003ca href=\"http://mycondor.org/condorprofiles/condor444.html\">profile page\u003c/a> for the bird, who’s nicknamed “Ventana”:\u003c/p>\n\u003cblockquote>\u003cp>Ventana tends to spend most of her time at Pinnacles National Park. In 2012, biologists noticed that she started spending more time with Condor #340 at Pinnacles and in the spring of 2013, they had decidedly formed a pair bond when remote observations confirmed the presence of an egg in one of their favorite caves! The egg failed, but this is common for a young couple and it is much more likely that they will be successful parents next year.\u003c/p>\u003c/blockquote>\n\u003cp>The zoo will release the condor back into the wild once she’s well enough.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>California condors were on the brink of extinction 30 years ago.
