The mighty endangered
California condor has
decided to take revenge on
the people of California.
The birds, which have up
to a nine-foot wingspan,
have descended Hitchcock-
style on the town of Bear
Valley Springs, ripping off
roof shingles, clawing at
air conditioners, and, of
course, coating the town in
condor feces. At one rental
property, condors pried
open a can of white paint,
coating a deck with it; bit
the wiring of the air
conditioning; and tore
apart the screens of two
sliding doors. “A lot of
people used to think seeing
a condor was amazing, the
realtor, Beth Hall, told
FoxNews.com.
According to US Department of Fish and
Wildlife representative John
McCamman, “They are just ripping
stuff up.” But residents can’t do
anything about the delinquent condors,
due to federal and state regulations. In
fact, the California State Fish and Game
Commission recently prohibited use of
lead ammunition in areas in which
condors nest. Actually, about the only
thing you can do to the condor in
California is kill it using a wind
turbine.
