- Title
Evaluation of Longevity and Wear of Colored Plastic Leg-bands on Sandhill Cranes in Wisconsin.
- Authors
Dickerson, Katherine L.; Hayes, Matthew A.
- Abstract
The article presents a study which investigated durability and retention of colored plastic leg bands deployed by the International Crane Foundation on Sandhill Cranes in Wisconsin from 1991 to 2014. Findings include the high bird band detention across 20 years of observation, the effect of band height, sex of bird, year of band deployment, and radio presence or absence on long-term band retention, and the long-term retention of colored leg band construction on Sandhill Cranes.
