Ecology of the eastern population of the Siberian Crane Leucogeranus leucogeranus in the taiga section of its flyway: habitats, foraging, trophic links with Elk Alces alces, and threats -- Victor G. Degtyarev & Sergei M. Sleptsov, Pp. 4871–4879 DOI: dx.doi.org/10.11609/JoTT.o3467.4871-9 1.Wetlands along taiga flyway of the eastern population of Siberian crane do not meet its requirements for effective foraging conditions. 2. Eastern population’s foraging efficiency in taiga bogs is extremely low and depends on density of moose population. 3. Stopovers on main rivers are interrupted by boating. 4. Passage through taiga zone is likely to be the most strenuous point in year for eastern population. 5. Stopover foraging conditions are likely can be improved in the worst-case conservation scenario
