Perito Moreno National Park: Patagonia with lots of privacy

Perito Moreno National Park: Patagonia with lots of privacy CNN 3/9/2021 © Eric Mohl The condors gave it away. Instead of soaring in circles on thermals high overhead, a group of Andean condors was traveling low to the ground. Some even landed tentatively before lumbering back up into the air only to touch down again near the same spot near one of the dirt roads that run through the park. These endangered scavengers were clearly feeding and I wanted to see what they d found to feast on. As I drove slowly closer, the enormous birds moved a short distance away and after a few careful steps through tufts of grass along the side of the road I saw what they were after: a partly eaten young guanaco, its neck snapped in a signature puma move. Standing there alone with the fresh kill under the watchful, wary eyes of the condors felt like I was in my own personal episode of Wild Kingdom with Marlin Perkins.
