it's mesmerizing they can never get enough of. these birds used to thrive across the hokkaido region and migrated to the mainland. but by the early one thousand nine hundred over hunting and destruction of their habitat from rampant land development caused a decline in their population at one point they were believed. have been extinct the crane still here today are believed to originate from a handful that survived in the wetlands where spring water kept the river from freezing. local farmers first spotted them plucking corn in their fields and gave their own food to save the wintering cranes that's how the feeding began and their numbers gradually began to recover yes it's a moving history we followed up on their effort and continued to provide a stable feeding ground when our institution was founded thirty years ago there were about four hundred cranes now there are eighteen hundred. i'm so relieved when

they come back to us in winter it's good to know they were well and raise their children safely it feels like reuniting with family feeding is crucial for wintering cranes and we need to keep it. but they're wild birds and they shouldn't get too used to us that's why i do my job carefully even if i want to show them how much i care i remind myself to keep a distance. their numbers continue to grow but there are downsides to think about the birds can die coming too close to him and they can also cause agricultural damage beyond sanctuary we have to lessen these incidents and their dependence on us and let them thrive in the wild. bill without is there and it's time for us to take a look at the top stories the un human rights chief says strikes on the besieged
