Experience: I live as a crane

[Heavy Metal Lacros]

idk why ppl think this is crazy lol these suits r like the future of conservation , can't argue with results tho 10 species down from 15 ain't bad considering we're dealin w/ extinction levels here at least they found a way to make it work, even if it means gettin worn out but seriously, these chicks r adorable & I'm glad ppl are willin' to think outside the box

I mean, who knew dressing up like a crane would actually help raise them? It's like they say, think outside the box (or enclosure). The attention to detail on these costumes is crazy, from the wing armhole to the puppet head – it's like they're trying out for a role in some sort of birdie musical . And seriously, 10 species still threatened with extinction? That's a big deal. It just goes to show that sometimes the unorthodox approach can lead to real results .

I think this is such an awesome way to help save the crane species! Who knew wearing a costume could be so effective? It's amazing how creative solutions can come from thinking outside the box (or enclosure, in this case). The fact that these chicks are learning important survival skills like imprinting and mimicry just shows how dedicated the team is. And yeah, it can get hot and heavy working with those suits, but I'm sure it's worth it to see those little birds take flight

I'm totally stoked about this wildlife conservation thing . Using costume suits to raise endangered birds is like, genius ! I mean, who wouldn't want to wear a giant crane suit and teach chicks how to fly? It's not just about the suits though, it's about the dedication and creativity that goes into saving these amazing species. The International Crane Foundation is doing some serious work here and I'm all for it ! Ten out of 15 species are still in trouble, but at least there's hope . And let's be real, who wouldn't want to watch these little birds take flight for the first time? It's like a dream come true !

I totally get why they're using these costume suits . Like, think about it - the chicks are so used to seeing adult cranes around them all day, every day, they basically imprint on their "parents" and follow them everywhere! It's like they're trying to mimic the behavior of real adults already, so why not just use a costume that looks like one? Plus, I can imagine it must be super tiring for those people in the suits - all that heat and weight can't be fun. But the payoff is totally worth it when those little chicks take flight for the first time . And you know what's even more amazing? The fact that there are still 10 species of cranes that need protection . Kudos to the International Crane Foundation for all their hard work .

I gotta say, wearing a crane suit is straight up weird , but at the same time, it's actually kinda genius? I mean, who wouldn't want to help save endangered birds right? The whole thing just goes to show that sometimes you have to think outside the box (or in this case, out of your comfort zone) to make a real difference.

It's amazing how much patience and dedication goes into raising these chicks. I'm not gonna lie, it sounds like an exhausting job , but seeing those little guys take flight must be the most rewarding thing ever. And yeah, 10 out of 15 crane species being threatened with extinction is a big problem, but at least there's some positive momentum going on.

The International Crane Foundation should totally get more funding or something ... just kidding, kind of . Seriously though, it's awesome to see people working together to make a difference in the world.
