With a wingspan up to 10 feet in length, the mighty Andean condor is one of the largest flying birds in the world. This massive bird has a hairless head, which will change color depending on its emotional state. Though the condor can live up to 70 years, its population is in decline, largely due to the destruction of its natural habitat. | Great Big Story
