Characteristics of Dry Upland Roosts of the Black-Necked Crane (Grus nigricollis) Wintering In Yongshan, China

Changes in the landscape patterns of Black‐necked Crane habitat and its correlation with their individual population numbers during the past 40 years in China

“…Although this study counted the number of individuals in each Black‐necked Crane distribution area in China since 1980, these records of Black‐necked Crane population distribution concentrated mainly in the Yunnan‐Guizhou plateau, the records of the Black‐necked Crane population in Tibet were relatively the rarest (Fang et al, 2020 ; Lu et al, 2017 ; Wu et al, 2020 ). Therefore, counting the number of individual Black‐necked Cranes in the wintering area was relatively easier.…”
