Whooping Cranes following a Operation Migration microlight

Led by Operation Migration co-founder, Joe Duff, this human led migration annually leads a new generation of Whooping cranes on their 1200+ mile migration from the Necedah National Wildlife Refuge in central Wisconsin to the Chassahowitzka National Wildlife Refuge in Florida. Using a specially constructed ultralight, complete with cameras, GPS system and an amplifier system to broadcast calling sounds, Joe and his four man team can cover any where from 50-100 miles per day at a speed of 38 mph.[Barcroftmedia/CFP]
