Description
The wattled crane is a large bird with a long white neck, gray body, black undersides, and a black “cap.” The skin in front of the eye extending to the base of the beak and tip of the wattles is red and bare of feathers and covered by small round wart-like bumps. Their name comes from the white wattles that dangle from their throats. It is a threatened species of crane found in wetlands and grasslands of eastern and southern Africa. They are the most wetland-dependent of Africa’s crane species, and their distribution is reliant upon annual river basin flood patterns. Agricultural expansion is the leading cause of loss and degradation of its wetland habitat. The wattled crane is the largest crane in Africa and the tallest flying bird native to Africa.
