Australian TV show Catalyst will hopefully mention lead poisoning t   Message List

Hi all,

I noticed in an ad for Catalyst on Australian Broadcasting Commission (ABC) Channel 2 will screen a story about Californian Condors and since they were nearly wiped out by lead poisoning and the remaining few have been undergoing chelation therapy, I figured that these important details will be mentioned in the story (though they are not mentioned in the promo below).

The California Condor flies again


Imagine being born in captivity, spending your whole life constrained, and then one day you’re set loose in the big wild world.

Well, California Condor Number 79 will find out what that’s like, when she’s given her first taste of freedom.

From the magnificent mountains of the USA’s west coast, Dr Jonica Newby reports on the moving tale of how a small band of conservationists dreamed of seeing this giant of the Pleistocene flying once more above the Californian coastline.

This is a story of ancient mystery and intrigue, of courage and fear, and above all, of an incredible battle to bring a prehistoric species back to life.
