Agencies say the annual cost to operate the proposed hunt far outweighs revenues by $1.6 million and would completely overwhelm current farmer assistance programs.
The two populations of North America’s migrating Whooping Cranes exhibit vastly different behaviors on their journey south. The remnant Aransas-Wood Buffalo Population (AWBP) migrates about 2,500 miles along the Central Flyway to reach their historic wintering grounds in coastal Texas. The Eastern Migratory Population (EMP), a reintroduced population established in 2001, was originally taught to fly to coastal Florida to salt marshes that mimic the conditions of the wintering habitat in Texas.
During January, most of the Whooping Cranes in the Eastern Migratory Population were still on their wintering grounds and doing well.
