Determining the Diet of Whooping Cranes (Grus americana) Through Field Measurements

Waterbirds, 2018
Though an important measure for ecological studies, obtaining foraging data through direct observation is rarely assessed independently. Using field measurements (foraging habitat, food acquisition behavior, and food manipulation time), the summer diet of Whooping Cranes (Grus americana) in Wisconsin, USA, was determined; foods consumed based on ...

Predation on Amphibians and Reptiles by Reintroduced Whooping Cranes (Grus americana) in Louisiana

The American Midland Naturalist, 2016
Abstract Predation on reptiles and amphibians by whooping cranes (Grus americanus) is widely reported, but all published data are anecdotal or based on singular observations, and mostly refer to isolated predation events. Some observers consider reptiles and amphibians to only be occasional prey items of whooping cranes. I report observations that show

Comparison of Serum Protein Electrophoresis Values in Wild and Captive Whooping Cranes (Grus americana)

Journal of Avian Medicine and Surgery, 2015
Protein electrophoresis of serum samples from endangered, wild whooping cranes ( Grus americana ) was performed to help assess the health of the only self-sustaining, migratory population in North America. Serum samples from wild adult cranes (n = 22) were taken at Aransas National Wildlife Refuge, Texas, USA during winter. Wild juvenile cranes (n = 26)
