The Influence of Age, Sex and Season on Andean Condor Ranging Behavior during the Immature Stage
Immature individuals move from their natal area to the area where they settle and reproduce, and this may take several years. This process is essential for long-lived species such as vultures and condors, which spend long periods as immature and move ...
