Thesarus crane(Antigone antigone) is a large non-migratorycranefound in parts of theIndian Subcontinent, Southeast Asia and Australia. The tallest of the flying birds, standing at a height of up to 1.8 m (5 ft 11 in),[3]they are conspicuous and iconic[4]species of openwetlands. The sarus crane is easily distinguished from other cranes in the region by the overall grey colour and the contrasting red head and upper neck. They forage onmarshesandshallow wetlands for roots, tubers, insects, crustaceans and small vertebrate prey. Like other cranes, they form long-lastingpair-bondsand maintain territories within which they perform territorial and courtshipdisplaysthat include loud trumpeting, leaps and dance-like movements. In India they are considered symbols of marital fidelity, believed to mate for life and pine the loss of their mates even to the point of starving to death. The main breeding season is during therainy season, when the pair builds an enormous nest "island", a circular platform of reeds and grasses nearly two metres in diameter and high enough to stay above the shallow water surrounding it. Sarus crane numbers have declined greatly in the last century and it has been suggested that the current population is a tenth or less (perhaps 2.5%) of the numbers thatexisted in the 1850s. The stronghold of the species is in India, where it is traditionally revered and lives in agricultural lands in close proximity to humans. Elsewhere, the species has beenextirpatedin many parts of its formerrange....
