Cranes are hailed as fairy birds in China. Black-necked cranes have very long necks. When it raises the head and calls, its voice sounds like a trumpet and travels very far. That is mainly a result of their special body structure.
About CGTN Nature
In the Southeastern Tibet Series, we focus on the magnificent southeastern Tibet. Unlike the common Tibet we know, the southeastern area has glaciers, lakes, snow mountains, meadow, forest and wetland. The water vapor and heat from the Indian Ocean have passed through canyons until they reach the inner land of Tibet, which make the southeastern part a place of warmth and greenery. Tibetan rhesus macaque, black-necked cranes together with other incredible animals and plants, are living harmonically on the land of southeastern Tibet.
