Sandhill cranes typically have a lifespan of about 20 to 30 years in the wild. However, some individuals have been known to live longer, with a few reaching up to 40 years in captivity. Their longevity can be influenced by factors such as habitat quality, predation, and environmental conditions.
A female sandhill crane is a member of the species Grus canadensis, known for its long legs, neck, and distinctive gray plumage. Females, like males, participate in elaborate courtship dances and are involved in nurturing their young. They typically mate for life and are found in wetlands, grasslands, and agricultural fields across North America during breeding season. Female sandhill cranes contribute to the species' characteristic vocalizations, which are often heard during mating rituals and territorial displays.
