[i] [/i] [columns] [center][i]Gymnogyps californianus[/i]
Critically Endangered
Found: Southern and Central California
"The drastic population decline during the 20th century is principally attributed to persecution and accidental ingestion of fragments from lead bullets and lead shot from carcasses (C. N. Parish in litt. 2012), resulting in lead poisoning."
"The population along the Central Pacific Californian coast also suffers from reduced eggshell thickness consistent with the effects of the breakdown compounds of the pesticide DDT, compromising reproduction in the wild (Burnett et al. 2013)."

"Increased trawling for the species has resulted in the accidental capture of juveniles, which are easily mistaken for smaller, more abundant species. This has led to a staggering population decline among winter skate, which are slow to reach sexual maturity and have few offspring."
