White-naped Crane

Posted: November 23, 2016 in Birds, Natural History
Tags: London Wetland Centre, White-naped Crane

The White-naped Crane comes from Mongolia and SE Russia and is listed as a vulnerable species due to habitat destruction. It is estimated that there are around 5000 birds in the wild and it is the subject of a worldwide breeding programme with a view to strengthening the native population from birds bred in captivity.
