     Note: In the late 20th century it is classed as an endangered
           species. The California condor used to number in the

           United States. By 1982 only 21 to 24 individuals could
           be identified in the wild. A breeding program was
           instituted, and by 1996 over 50 birds were alive in
           captivity. As of 1997, fewer than ten of the bred birds
           had been reintroduced into the wild.
