Characteristics The Andean condor is one of the largest birds in the world that flies at great heights, being able to reach three meters with wings spread. They have a black plumage with its characteristic white collar on the neck. Males have a crest and folds on the face and neck that increase in size with age, while females do not have a crest.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;

Habitat They live in quite windy areas, since they use the winds to rise, such as mountainous or coastal areas with strong sea breezes.

Feeding They feed on dead animals because they are scavengers.
