  <dc:description>&lt;p&gt;The California condor (&lt;i&gt;Gymnogyps californicus&lt;/i&gt;), with a weight of 18 to 22 pounds and a wingspan of approximately nine feet, is one of the largest land birds in the Western Hemisphere. It is one of seven species of New World vultures in the family Cathartidae, which includes the more familiar and much smaller North American species, the turkey vulture (&lt;span id="_mce_caret" data-mce-bogus="true"&gt;&lt;i&gt;﻿Cathartes aura&lt;/i&gt;&lt;span id="_mce_caret" data-mce-bogus="true"&gt;﻿).&lt;span id="_mce_caret" data-mce-bogus="true"&gt;&lt;sup&gt;﻿1&lt;/sup&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br data-mce-bogus="1"&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</dc:description>
