      and if it flies to the USA, will the minutemen shoot at it for being an illegal condor? Probably not, they would rather welcome an animal than a foreigner. Even if it has no visa.

        The hatchling, would be naturally be a american mexican condor, and only in america would it be afforded, all the rights,, protections ,,privledges ,afforded to non-americans, in mexico., it can be shot,on sight,just for being in the way of the drug smuglers, corrupt politicans, or hungry people.Now thats the way it is, not the way you want it to be.
