Gymnogyps californianus June 25, 1946 Shale Hills, Glip. ½ mile away, 4 the last adult when we were ¼± mile away. One vimm. stayed until we were 200± yds away. A turkey multere stayed until I had walked to within about 200' of carcass. The food lay about 50' (vertically) above the bottom of canyon, 100±' uphill (15±%) from a barbed-wire fence. It was a small dog - somewhat like an Australian shepherd - about 3 days dead. The forelegs were turned inside out & all the forward part of the dog. The skull was freshly bloody as if recently fed upon & attached to skin at snout. Skull's spine to lumbar region was attached to skin. Sternum & some ribs missing. The tail & hind legs were right-side out but hind leg mainly hollow. All internal organs gone, & pelvis & posterior vertebrae still in place in skin. About ½ skin gone from legs & belly. The vimm. lost to leave flopped a great deal in circling & rising over the E. slopes opposite the carcass. All circled & rose until only 1 condor visible at 1:25. We then left the area. We found parceled grain on the ground but saw no dead squirrels or squirrel evidence never more than a few here, low naves. The hide was limp but it appeared that the dog must have been mostly consumed a day or so ago & then reworked today - food must be scarce for 5 condors to come down for a few ounces of dawg meat! We returned to Shannon via Solano Pass. Apparently
