Faith McNulty presents the gripping true story of scientists, wildlife managers, and passionate advocates who fought against overwhelming odds to preserve the last surviving wild flock of whooping cranes. Written with journalistic precision and deep compassion, the narrative details the painstaking recovery efforts — from nest monitoring in Canada's remote Wood Buffalo National Park to the carefully managed wintering grounds along the Texas Gulf Coast. With an introduction by Stewart L. Udall, then-Secretary of the United States Department of the Interior, the book carries both scientific credibility and urgent political weight, standing as a powerful testament to what human determination can achieve in the face of ecological catastrophe.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Secondhand Stock","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48956323659995,"sku":"2026200008215-SECONDHAND","price":20.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0523\/7646\/9701\/files\/07588278-893e-4f43-93eb-10bd447eda5d.png?v=1783499682","url":"https:\/\/bookgrocer.com\/products\/2026200008215-secondhand-the-whooping-crane-a-fight-against-extinction","provider":"Book Grocer","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
