    • You are not helping. Make it a human vs animal issue and demonize the humans who show no active malice (poaching) and you will lose these animals. The only solution is to find a way for both man and animals to learn to live with each other not against.

    • What on earth are you two talking about?! Either you didn't understand the video, or didn't understand my comment. Morgan, how are the farmers feeding the cranes causing their disappearance? And Asher, who is demonizing whom? What are you talking about?

      @Silkendrum@Silkendrum3 жыл бұрын
    • I was responding to Morgan he’s clearly trying to say humans expanding farmland to feed both their families and the population at large is responsible for the cranes decline in number and therefor they should only be called evil even when they are clearly trying to co habit with them. I was criticizing his stance as unhelpful as it will ultimately be the work of the local population that saves this bird and other endangered species unless we want to launch a full on police state style military operation to beat down the locals into submission or expel them out right

    • Throughout history, birds have been viewed as animals of special value and have been ladened with meanings often derived from legends and stories that have survived over many generations. The Crane, existing in fifteen species which inhabit five continents, may conceivably be the oldest bird on earth; there is fossil proof that they existed over 60 million years ago. Greek and Roman myth tended to portray the dance of cranes as a love of joy and a celebration of life. The crane was usually considered to be a bird of Apollo, the sun god, who heralded in Spring and light.

    • There are fifteen species of crane in the world, six species in Africa. The Ethiopian Highlands have three of the species, and one of them inspired the Phoenix. Euripides speaks of Cepheus, king of Ethiopia, a son of Phoenix. The bird, the constellation of the same name and the human figures that personified them tell a fascinating tale, but it is not known outside of the region.

    • Their behavior may adapt to expecting handouts, at least at that particular location in the video. We had a group of Canada Goose hang around in California for a few seasons instead of migrating when they normally would because of the change in climate. Part of my theory is that they had a much easier time just hanging around, easily eating the food people gave them. The need to look for food for themselves became scarce.
