PVA: was just for 1 small population, not all cranes. Migratory: most populations migrate, but some make only local movements & the reintroduction project is hoping to establish a sedentary population. GROUND/AERIAL: flies, but nests, roosts, & feeds on ground. has 6 wk period after breeding where it is flightless after moulting.
