Articles about the California condor have been published in hundreds of magazines. Magazines about nature, science, and travel have all included condor articles. The same goes for magazines intended for birders, children, and outdoor types. And news and general-interest magazines have carried their share of articles about the condor.
But sometimes magazine articles about the condor appear where I had not expected them. In this post I offer examples not previously considered in this blog.
The previous post to this blog, Extinct in the wild: news reports – part 1, concerned newspaper reports published the day after the “last wild” California condor was captured on 19 April 1987. This post looks at magazine articles published during the months following this critical event in the history of condors and humans.
The illustrations of the California condor below are all from magazines that are not specifically about animals.
The California condor has appeared on the cover of many magazines in recent decades. In this post I share 10 fine examples.
I previously noted items about traveling to see California condors via automobile, items that were published during the 1st half of the 20th century. Here I consider 3 articles published in travel-related magazines during the 3rd quarter of the 20th century.
