The Andean Condor's 100-Kilometer Diet

Andean condors spend their nights on the southern Chilean coast, but declines in marine mammal populations mean these scavengers are forced to search far and wide for food. Photo by Jack Dykinga/Minden Pictures

Lost at Sea: Why the Birds You Don't See Are Fading Away

https://www.nationalgeographic.com/magazine/2018/07/seabird-crisis-conservation-birds-oceans/?beta=true


In Peru's Lobos de Afuera Islands, a century of loss from guano harvesting, overfishing, and-recently-climate change lies between a 1907 photograph of a Peruvian pelican breeding colony and the landscape of littered bones on the same spot in 2017. Starvation, coupled with El Ni?o rains, likely killed most of the chicks in the preceding breeding season.
