“Love is strong, but our bolt cutters are stronger,” reads a new Facebook post from Grand Canyon National Park in Arizona.
In the post shared on social media earlier this week, the park management expresses concern about ‘love locks.’ These popular objects are padlocks that are hung from a metal fence, often bearing a couple’s name or initials, with the key then thrown into a nearby body of water.
However, while the locks themselves are considered “littering” and “graffiti” in the park, it’s the keys that can cause even more serious problems. “Condors are curious animals and much like a small child will investigate strange things they come across with their mouths,” reads the post. “Condors are not meant to digest metal and many times cannot pass these objects. If a condor ingests too many objects like this, it could die.”
