A California condor released in the wild two years ago was found dead Saturday under a power line with burn marks on its feathers, wildlife officials said.
The death of the 3-year-old female reduces the condor population to 199, of which only 73 live in the wild, said Kelly Sorenson, executive director of the Ventana Wilderness Society, a nonprofit group that rehabilitates and releases birds into the wild.
California condors, the largest birds in North America with a 10-foot wingspan, nearly became extinct in the late 20th century as they lost habitat and suffered from human intrusions.

 CATHOLIC ENCYCLOPEDIA: California Missions
During the sixty years that the Jesuits were permitted to labour among the natives of California, fifty-six members of the Society of Jesus came to the peninsula, of whom sixteen, two as martyrs, died at their posts.
The Jesuits of lower California were placed on board a ship in February, 1768, and brought to Mexico whence, with the Mexican religious, those who outlived the cruelties inflicted on the way thither were shipped to Europe.
Don José de Galvez, the inspector-general, was sent to Lower California not merely for the purposes of correcting abuses; he had been directed to secure for the crown of Spain the whole northwest coast as far as it had been discovered and explored by Juan Rodriguez Cabrillo in 1542, and by Sebastian Vizcaino in 1602-1603.
