Whooping Crane (Grus americana) Family Consumes a Diversity of Aquatic Vertebrates During Fall Migration Stopover at the Platte River, Nebraska

Western North American Naturalist, 2021
. The Aransas-Wood Buffalo population of Whooping Cranes (Grus americana) migrates approximately 4000 km through the central Great Plains biannually, between their breeding and wintering grounds. Whooping Cranes depend on stopover sites to provide secure

Survivorship of the Whooping Crane, Grus Americana

Ecology, 1980
population regulation in nature, as proposed in an earlier paper (Y-omnicki 1978a), then one can expect a very heavy mortality among animals leaving one local habitat in search of another. If so, an individual which stays longer in the same local habitat would produce more progeny in his life span.

EXERTIONAL MYOPATHY IN WHOOPING CRANES (GRUS AMERICANA) WITH PROGNOSTIC GUIDELINES

Journal of Zoo and Wildlife Medicine, 2005
Exertional myopathy developed in three whooping cranes (Grus americana) secondary to routine capture, handling, and trauma. Presumptive diagnosis of exertional myopathy was based on history of recent capture or trauma, clinical signs, and elevation of aspartate aminotransferase, alanine aminotransferase, creatine kinase, lactate dehydrogenase, and ...

Head-bobbing behavior in walking whooping cranes (Grus americana) and sandhill cranes (Grus canadensis)

Journal of Ornithology, 2007
Head-bobbing is a common and characteristic behavior of walking birds. While the activity could have a relatively minor biomechanical function, for balance and stabilization of gait, head-bobbing is thought to be primarily a visual behavior in which fixation of gaze alternates with a forward movement that generates visual flow.

The whooping crane (Grus americana) population of North America

Biological Conservation, 1974
Abstract A model of the whooping crane population of North America shows that its rate of increase has been the result of a stabilized death rate, in spite of an overall decrease in the birth rate and no significant increase in the breeding population.
