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.
Among the cranes, they make the longest distance migrations. Their populations, particularly those in the western range, have declined drastically in the 20th century due to hunting along their migration routes and habitat degradation.
According to tracking data, Siberian Cranes started and ended autumn migration on 23 September and 19 November, respectively. Spring migration started on 8 April and ended on 4 June. The migration routes between seasons showed spatial similarity but less repeatability.
The Siberian Crane East Asian population covers nearly 6,000 kilometers from breeding grounds in north-eastern Russia to wintering grounds in the Yangtze Valley in eastern central China with significant migratory stopovers in Songnen Plain in north-eastern China.
21 Φεβ 2023 · Historically, there were three migration routes of the Siberian Crane in Asia. The central population, which wintered in India, has been extinct since 2002. The eastern population, wintering in China, now has around 5,000 birds, but their habitat is threatened by dam construction, loss and degradation of wetland habitat, and climate change.
Our work builds on the strong cultural ties to cranes in East Asia, to engage local communities and policy makers in the conservation of protected areas and their surrounding landscapes, including: Ensure healthy populations of Siberian Crane populations in the Amur-Heilong Basin of Russia and China. We are:
1 Οκτ 2023 · The images cover spring, summer, and autumn for each year from 1984 to 2020. The time of images for each season was based on the migration pattern of Siberian cranes (Wen et al., 2021). The spring time was selected from April to May, which is the peak of spring migration for Siberian cranes.
