| Summary: | A report on Operation Migration, a four-year experimental program trying to establish a new migratory flock of whooping cranes after nearly a century of these birds teetering on the brink of extinction. Includes an interview with Joe Duff, an artist and amateur pilot, who has teamed up with scientists at the U.S. Government-run Patuxent Wildlife Research Center, where the cranes are bred and raised. Duff teaches the birds how to migrate south using his small ultra-light plane as the 'lead bird'. |
