40 Years for the International Crane Foundation

In 2013 the International Crane Foundation is celebrating its 40th year of saving the world's crane population. Their efforts have saved wetlands and increased crane populations as well as improved peoples livelihoods on 5 continents.

Located in Baraboo, it is the only place where you can see all 15 crane species. The ICF is open to the public April 15th to October 31th from 9AM to 5PM.  There are tours available in the summer, or just come visit the birds or hike the trails. Find more information about cranes, visiting the foundations or donating at the International Crane Foundation website savingcranes.org

Follow the Crane Migration


The International Crane Foundation, located in Baraboo, released 6 young whooping cranes at the Horicon National Wildlife Refuge in September for their first migration to Florida.  On September 28th  Operation Migration took to the air to lead the birds on their 1258 mile journey. You can read daily reports from the crew of the ultra light and follow this wondrous flight Operation Migration In the Field
