Sisquoc joined us in 1983 as the first chick to ever hatch at a zoo, but thankfully he wasn't the last. Through the California Condor Recovery Program, the population has grown to over 400 birds and we're proud to say we've had 165 hatchlings since Sisquoc's arrival. endextinction.org/wildlife/condor | San Diego Zoo Safari Park | Facebook
