The Los Angeles Audubon Society’s Condor Fund: A Short History

The Los Angeles Audubon Society’s Condor Fund: A Short History

Since 1934, the Los Angeles Audubon Society has been publishing a regular newsletter titled Western Tanager. In reviewing back issues for mentions of the California condor, I was struck by the number of mentions to the group’s fund for the condor.

In this post, I report some of what I learned about the organization’s fund-raising for the California condor from issues of Western Tanager dated 1939-1969.
