Good read. I read it fast but I didn't notice any mention of the hurricane (one or two years ago) that killed off the entire remnant population of whoopers in Florida. At the time, these whoopers didn't migrate -- they stayed put in Florida all year (as opposed to the Aransas, TX, birds that migrate to northern Canada every year).

I imagine that's what this work is about: getting these "new" Florida cranes accustomed to migration.

I hope they succeed. For many reasons, two viable populations is good wildlife management.
