Cranes can be found on 5 continents and in the cultural traditions, mythology, and folklore of many cultures. A type of crane serves as the national bird for at least 3 countries. For this mission, include spottings of black crowned cranes(VU), black-necked cranes(VU), blue cranes(VU), brolga, common cranes (Eurasian cranes), demoiselle cranes, grey crowned cranes(VU), hooded cranes(VU), red-crowned cranes(EN) (Manchurian or Japanese cranes), sandhill cranes, sarus cranes(VU), Siberian cranes(CR), wattled cranes(VU), white-naped cranes(VU), and whooping cranes(EN). Due to conservation concerns, only give a general location for those cranes listed with a conservation code (VU, EN, CR).

Share your pictures of and information on the 15 crane species (including the brolga). Please post only cranes (a listing of crane species is on the detail page). Edited by Project Noah Management. User created missions may only be local, refer to mission creation instructions.
