Brian
Johns is a biologist with the Canadian Wildlife Service. He is
seen here measuring water depths during a whooping crane nest check
in
Wood Buffalo National
Park. |
Brian is the Canadian leader of the International Whooping Crane
Recovery Team. He has been helping whooping cranes since
1981. Brian is based in Saskatoon, SK. He travels 1,000 KM to
Fort Smith to fly for his breeding
grounds surveys after the cranes start nesting. (For
the cranes, 1,000 KM is about a 3-day flight.) |
Brian records whooping crane unison
calls in an effort to identify
individual pairs through their unique voiceprints. |
