I should also have said they put the cranes in the enclosures just at night. They roam during the day. Gail

I thought the idea was to build a second wild population. Somehow I can't see this happening if they aren't able to fly freely and find a place to feed in winter without the help of humans. I'm sure there is something that I am missing here. Larry S _______________________________________________ mou-net mailing list [email protected] http://cbs.umn.edu/mailman/listinfo/mou-net
