Gymnogyps californianus June 1, 1946 E. of McFarland, Calif. section 10 t'N. ofiles. Some of the processes had been broken at tips. I photod the remains, the main body in situ. Further examination showed that the ears were gone & a hole remained at each of them, yet the rest of neck skin was in- tact. One leg was pulled inside out through a hole at spilla; the other was pulled through the main abdominal opening so that only hoof tip was visible from outside. About only meat remaining was in lower legs. The skull was loose in the head skin bag. The anal hole was only about 3" in diameter, & the abdominal opening through which bone of pelvis, hind-legs, & hide around tail were pulled was about 8" forward of this. The abdominal hole could not have been over 12" in diameter- possibly a slit. Lower leg joints were flexible & carcass odiferous- probably dead since before yesterday. Calf appar- tly is a favorite food. The foothill area to W. was mainly in grain it appeared- I saw only about 200 cattle, & these mainly in corals. Blue Mtn., the area of Vincent's 35 condors, was snapp- ious to the E.. Sky clear, air warm, fair W. breeze at 7:30 a.m. when I left carcass. I drove then to Delano. I was told there was a severe light- night rain storm about a week ago in this area,
