41、iladelphia.California condors are North America largest birds, with wind-length of up to 3 meters. In the 1980s, electrical lines and lead poisoning （铅中毒） nearly drove them to dying out. Now, electric shock training and medical treatment are helping to save these big birds.In the late 1980s, the las

42、t few condors were taken from the wild to be bred （繁殖） .
