The Andean Condor.<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span><\/p>\n

Interviene el moderador: No es cazador<\/strong>, y no tiene las fuertes garras<\/strong> que se necesitan para capturar y matar. A diferencia del \u00e1guila, no puede tomar un animal con sus patas<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span><\/p>\n

\u2026<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span><\/p>\n

El C\u00f3ndor es un animal <\/strong>exclusivamente carro\u00f1ero<\/strong>, esto quiere decir que no mata ni caza para comer, sino que se alimenta de cad\u00e1veres de animales o carro\u00f1a.<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span><\/p>\n

\u2026\u2026\u2026..<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span><\/p>\n

El descenso de un c\u00f3ndor hacia el suelo, alerta a los dem\u00e1s sobre la probable existencia de alimento<\/strong> y as\u00ed es que varios suelen congregarse sobre las carro\u00f1as<\/span><\/p>\n

\u2026\u2026\u2026<\/p>\n

El C\u00f3ndor es un carro\u00f1ero por excelencia, posee una cabeza y cuello desprovisto de plumas, lo que facilita la limpieza luego de comer, r<\/strong>efreg\u00e1ndose contra el suelo o las rocas puede despojarse de los restos de sangre o carro\u00f1a que se le adhieren al meter su largo cuello dentro de los cad\u00e1veres.<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span><\/p>\n

\u2026\u2026\u2026\u2026<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span><\/p>\n

Un pico fuerte y afilado<\/strong> les permite abrir los cueros<\/strong> m\u00e1s duros que otros carro\u00f1eros no podr\u00edan romper<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span><\/p>\n

\u2026\u2026\u2026\u2026<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span><\/p>\n

Un gran buche<\/strong>, ubicado en la base del cuello puede llegar a transportar hasta 4 kilos de comida<\/strong>. Repetimos que al no poseer garras no pueden llevar su alimento en las patas como lo har\u00eda un ave cazadora.<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span><\/p>\n

\u2026\u2026\u2026.<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span><\/p>\n

Los ojos<\/strong> est\u00e1n ubicados hacia los costados<\/strong> lo cual le permite cubrir gran superficie y as\u00ed encontrar a los animales muertos o restos de los mismos en descomposici\u00f3n<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span><\/p>\n

\u2026\u2026..<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span><\/p>\n

Sus alas<\/strong> est\u00e1n muy desarrolladas y les permite un planeo perfecto<\/strong> casi sin p\u00e9rdida de energ\u00eda, aprovechando corrientes de aire ascendentes y din\u00e1micas; pueden planear durante horas y recorrer grandes distancias en busca de animales muertos<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span><\/p>\n

\u2026\u2026.<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span><\/p>\n

El c\u00f3ndor no es depredador feroz ni agresivo<\/strong> y tiene una asombrosa capacidad para resistir el hambre y la sed, puede pasarse hasta un mes y medio sin comer al tiempo que conserva su vigor<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span><\/p>\n

\u2026\u2026\u2026..<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span><\/p>\n

Cuando un C\u00f3ndor localiza un cad\u00e1ver comienza a volar en c\u00edrculos, en poco tiempo se podr\u00e1 ver como los dem\u00e1s C\u00f3ndores comienzan a acercarse. Son muy desconfiados para bajar a comer, pudiendo pasar algunos d\u00edas hasta que se deciden a posarse cerca del alimento.<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span><\/p>\n

\u2026\u2026\u2026\u2026<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span><\/p>\n

Existe una marcada jerarqu\u00eda a la hora de comer<\/strong>, primero lo har\u00e1n los machos adultos, luego las hembras adultas y m\u00e1s tarde los sub adultos y juveniles<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span><\/p>\n

,,,,,,,,,,,,<\/span><\/p>\n

…<\/span><\/p>\n

..<\/span><\/p>\n

\n<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span><\/p>\n

Involved moderator<\/span><\/strong>: <\/strong>There is a hunter, and has strong claws that are needed to capture and kill. Unlike the eagle can not take an animal with its legs<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span><\/p>\n

———<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span><\/p>\n

The Condor is an animal scavenger only, this means that does not kill or hunt for food, but feed on dead animals or carrion.<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span><\/p>\n

…….<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span><\/p>\n

The decline of the condor to the ground, alert others about the probable existence of food and so they tend to congregate on various carrion<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span><\/p>\n

………<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span><\/p>\n

The condor is a scavenger par excellence, has a head and neck devoid of feathers, which makes cleaning after eating, rubbing against the ground or rocks may shed traces of blood or carrion that are stuck to get his long neck into the bodies<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span><\/p>\n

….<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span><\/p>\n

A strong and sharp beak allows them to open the skins harder than other scavengers could not break<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span><\/p>\n

…………<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span><\/p>\n

A large crop, located at the base of the neck can get to carry up to 4 kilos of food. Again, does not possess claws can not carry their food in the legs as you would a bird hunter.<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span><\/p>\n

……….<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span><\/p>\n

The eyes are located to the side allowing you to cover large area and so find the remains of dead animals and decomposing them<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span><\/p>\n

…………<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span><\/p>\n

Their wings are very developed and allows a perfect glide with almost no loss of energy, can glide for hours and travel long distances in search of dead animals<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span><\/p>\n

…….<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span><\/p>\n

The condor is not vicious or aggressive predator and has an amazing ability to withstand hunger and thirst, can spend up to a month and a half without food while maintaining its strength <\/span><\/p>\n

………..<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span><\/p>\n

When a Condor located a body starts flying in circles, in a short time you will see how the other Condors begin to approach. They are very wary to go down to eat, being able to spend a few days until you decide to perch near the food<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span><\/p>\n

\u2026\u2026\u2026\u2026..<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span><\/p>\n

There is a clear hierarchy at lunchtime, they will first adult males, adult females and then later the sub adult and juvenile<\/span><\/p>\n
