CEDAR CITY, Utah (ABC4) -- In the last couple of years, two condors have been found shot and killed in southern Utah -- which is a loss of about 2% of the region's population.

The first California condor was found killed in 2022, and the most recent one was killed at the beginning of last month, according to the Utah Division of Wildlife Resources. For the critically endangered species, the loss of even two birds makes a big difference.
