Condors Return to Idaho: A New Chapter in Conservation
Update: 2025-12-17
Description
Idaho residents may soon witness a remarkable sight: California condors, or qú’nes, soaring overhead in Hells Canyon. The Nez Perce Tribe, in partnership with the Colossal Foundation, aims to reintroduce these magnificent birds to the region, a feat not seen in centuries. The Colossal Foundation, known for its de-extinction efforts, will provide a ten-year, five hundred thousand dollar grant for this initiative. The Nez Perce Tribe, with a history of successful reintroductions, sees this as both an ecological restoration and spiritual renewal. The condors will come from the Yurok Native American tribe in California, and significant preparation is needed before their release, expected to take several years.
