Three California condors will be set free Thursday to soar above Pinnacles National Monument, joining the ranks of several others released into the wild as part of a 16-year national program that aims to save North America’s largest birds.

“The goal is to establish an additional 10 to 20 birds at Pinnacles within the next couple of years,†said Curt Mykut, spokesman for the Ventana Wilderness Society, the Carmel-based nonprofit group that is helping coordinate the release.
