The Siberian Cranes’ migration flyway extends over several thousand kilometres taking the cranes across many invisible national borders that did not exist when their ancestors first made this epic journey.
The Siberian crane (Leucogeranus leucogeranus) is the world's third most endangered species of crane. Amongst cranes, its serrated bill makes it unique and enables it to easily feed on underground roots and slippery prey items.
Habitat The Siberian Crane is the most aquatic member of its family, breeding and wintering in wetlands, and shows a general preference for wide expanses of shallow (up to 30 cm) fresh water with good visibility.
