00:10We have two sandhill cranes here in the Marsh Aviary in the Maryland Zoo.
00:13We've got Garrett and Allie.
00:14Garrett's been here for about two years right now,
00:17and he is a little over two years old right now.
00:19Allie is about seven, and she's been here for about a month.
00:24Sandhill cranes are found in most of the United States.
00:27Depending on the time of the year, they're in different parts of the country.
00:29So around the wintertime, they're found in the southern United States,
00:32like Southern California, Florida, and Texas.
00:34Around the summer, they head up to the northern United States, Canada, and Alaska.
00:37And some of them are actually found in the Arctic.
00:44The training that you guys are looking at today is called Station Training.
00:47So every animal that we have here in the Maryland Zoo,
00:49they have a different system of how we make sure that they're very, very healthy.
00:52And for all of our birds here in the aviary,
00:54we like to make sure that they're weighing very well every single month
00:56so that their weight isn't getting too heavy or too light.
00:59It's not just the enrichment we put out for them.
01:01It's also the entire exhibit space.
01:03That's an opportunity for them to do what they like to do in the wild.
01:05And so it's a really great place for them.
01:07And so, keep going.
