Wisconsin Crane Count Records Large Rise in 1929
In 69 Wisconsin counties thousands of volunteers led by 4 Hers Scout groups and the International Crane Foundation counted cranes before dawn in April. The 11th annual effort tallied over 6200 cranes with 1900 breeding pairs, highlighting Wisconsin’s strong crane population and expanding coverage to counties like Door. Training prepared 2500 observers to identify crane calls and other wetland birds.
