California Condor, California, 1995
This species is one of the conservation movement's greatest success stories. There were less than two dozen condors left on earth when captive-breeding efforts began in the 1980s. Now, there are 97 flying free and another 135 in captivity. Though it has taken an enormous amount of time and money, and the numbers are still very low, this dramatic recovery seems to have saved North America's largest bird from extinction — for now.
