My role in the crane conservation project is that of a patron for the Buranga Primary School “Cranes in the Classroom” program. This program was introduced to us about two years ago by the International Crane Foundation/Endangered Wildlife Trust Uganda Project Coordinator Jimmy Muheebwa. It came in handy when the Grey Crowned Cranes in Kabale were facing incredible persecution through capture for sale across the border into neighboring countries.

Garlic mustard, black locust and buckthorn… At the International Crane Foundation’s headquarters in Wisconsin, these three plant species are on the most wanted list of invasive species that our staff and volunteers work to eradicate each year. We remove these species as part of the broader habitat restoration program at our headquarters, which serves as both a living classroom and a home to many species of native plants and animals.
