Cranes are one of the largest species of birds in the world. In Wisconsin, it is hard to miss the unmistakable sounds of a Sandhill or Whopping crane call and their large shape gliding overhead when in flight. The International Crane Foundation was founded in Baraboo 50 years ago to conserve cranes and protect the habitats they call home. Anne Lacy, the Director of Eastern Flyway Programs in North America for the International Crane Foundation speaks about the organizations mission, the impact cranes have on agriculture, and how the Foundation works with farmers to both protect cranes and crops.
