Introduction  The Condor, is an important animal,  People have damaged most of the condor population.  The condor population is in constant decay  If the condor population keeps this constant decay, will it get to the point of extintion?

The Condor Since 2000, the Condor populations have declined, This is a endangered species There are only about Condors left in Ecuador. causes for the decay of Condors. In 2009 an organization dedicated to the protection of the Condor was created. The Condor is a Monogamous animal, and it can only lay one egg a year.

 In 2002, Aves & Conservación stated that there were no more than 70 individuals.  The Andean Condor is considered a threat  Condors, are scavengers, they only eat dead animals.  The first condor census was made in 1991 and 200 condors were registered.  The condor is the biggest flying land bird in the world.

Goats info  Feral goats are known because of their big appetite and because, they eat everything  They are devastating for some sectors, and in many plagues, they are considered plagues.  Many people have to search for a harsher way of dealing with them, for example hunting, poisoning, tracking, etc.

Math lab-Growth  What is the exponential growth of Freral goats in Galapagos  Used initial and final number of goats in Pinta (3 in 1959 and 20,000 in 1971)  Created a table with those values  Approximated a growth factor (with calculator) for the 12 years (2.083)  Filled the table by multiplying each value by the gf to get the next value  Used initial amount and gf to write the equation

Lab- growth Population of Goats in Pinta Island Year# of Year# of Goats

Conclusion As a conclusion we have realized that if we continue growing down this exponential decay path, the condor could be extinct in a few decades in fact in five years from now there are only going to be 36 condors P=200(.71 5 )= 36 This all means that by the year 2020 there could only be 36 condors left in Ecuador
