In the Krasnoyarsk “Roosty Ruchee”, interesting facts about cranes were told

In honor of World Cranium Day in the Flora and Fauna Park “Roev Brook”, interesting facts about birds told.

Cranes are really unique. The highest of all flying birds, they can reach 180 centimeters in height. More than a third of bird growth falls on the feet. Due to their special structure, most of them are devoid of the ability to sit on the trees. Only African crowned cranes can do this.

“Despite external timidity, the crane is a real predator. In his diet: fish, invertebrates and tadpoles, but he also eagerly eats algae, ”experts said.

The wings of the crane are developed no worse than the legs. Their scope in some species may exceed 1.5 meters, but not all cranes use this natural wealth fully.

In the fleet of Flora and Fauna “Roev Brook” beautiful cranes can be seen at any time of the year. There are large gray, rare white, elegant Japanese and other cranes. While they still spend time in street enclosures, but with the onset of cold weather they will move into heated enclosures, where they can be watched by glass.
