They fly over the Crane

Center where Kado works. He

is called the Caretaker of the Cranes.

Kado tells us about these birds that have visited

Bhutan for thousands of years.

“Long ago many more cranes came to our valley, but

this year we counted only 203,” he says. His eyes are sad. “But

the more we learn to care for them, the more we can help their

numbers grow.

“To protect the cranes, we preserve our wetlands so they

have enough to eat,” Kado says, “but we need to find more ways

to help them, for they are our sisters and brothers.”

What can I do to help?
