Partners and Collaborators
Our partners, the International Crane Foundation, maintain a website with more details on the ecological research taking place at Poyang Lake. For more information, please visit their website at https://www.savingcranes.org/89-2/
ICF has a series of ongoing projects across China focused on studying and conserving populations of the eight species of crane found in the region. ICF staff, researchers, and partners make up a vital (and growing) network to guide avian conservation efforts.
Due to the complexity of Poyang Lake, our research efforts wouldn't be possible without the guidance, insight, and assistance from a variety of collaborators. A few of our partners are mentioned here.
