California Condor Eben McMillan 19 June 1964 Case when condor feed on a sheep carcass. I feel quite sure that dogs pulled the bones out from the hide of this Sheep Carcass for it was so close to Trailer House that I doubt Condor would come feed out. A sick Sheep was standing in the canyon east of the Barnsdahl Well and about 300 yards north of the farm road that runs from Barnsdahl Well to the east. I drove around this sheep while it stood gasping for breath. I drove to Carissa Ranch where I ran into John Freeborn who was filling a Spray Tank with water at well 21 mile east of Carissa Ranch buildings. John, who is foreman at Carissa Ranch, said he had seen no Condor since last October, when he had driven on four, feeding on the carcass of a dead, Newborn Calf, down river from the Carissa Ranch about a mile. John said he drove to within 100 feet of the four Condor, and several Turkey vultures, as they fed. He said the birds paid him no heed as he sat watching them for about five minutes at this close range, the Condor would chase the Turkey vultures about now and then, and only took wing when he (John Freeborn) opened the Pickup Truck door closely. To step out and see if he could walk more [illegible]. The Condors flew from the area once they left the Carcass. I drove to Carissa Ranch buildings where I met Murphy Chaney who is attending to the Cattle, there, Murphy and I reviewed the conversation we had with him more than a year ago when we met him at the Dewey Werling ranch Near Soda Lake, on Carissaplains,-
