SUMMARY:Crane Migrations: Securing critical stopovers across political borders
DESCRIPTION:Since times untold the departures and arrivals of cranes in autumn and spring have heralded the changes of seasons. During these journeys across continents\, cranes stop at traditional sites\, known as staging areas\, to rest and build up fat reserves for the next flight. In central Asia\, cranes migrate at astounding altitudes over the Himalayas. Festivals and crop planting in some cultures are associated with the migration of cranes. In recent years\, extensive new information about the migration of cranes has been secured using telemetry devices attached to cranes that communicate with satellites and cell phone towers. Dr. George Archibald\, Co-Founder and Senior Conservationist of the International Crane Foundation\, will summarize what is known about the migrations of cranes across Asia and North America and how ICF works to secure these stopovers. \nSPEAKER: Dr. George Archibald\, International Crane Foundation\, Co-Founder & Senior Conservationist \nRegister HERE
