Those interactions can be beneficial or neutral when domestic animal densities and their impact on wetland or grassland systems are low to moderate, as found in more traditional agricultural practices. The most common interaction is with grazers, primarily domestic ungulates such as cattle, horses, and sheep. Cranes can benefit from the rapid recycling of grassland nutrients, maintenance of open areas, and invertebrate foods that grazers facilitate. Examples of the close interactions among cranes and grazers are found in South Africa, Central Eurasia, China, India, and North America. Overgrazing and direct disturbances from domestic livestock are usually detrimental to cranes and interact with other factors such as altered wetland hydrology, fire, and changing climate. Cranes are most likely to interact with domestic birds in wetlands (ducks and geese) or farm areas (poultry) where they are attracted to areas where the domestic birds are being fed and maintained in large open areas. Risks of disease transmission between domestic birds and cranes are the greatest concern. Dogs associated with humans and agricultural activities are generally a threat where cranes are raising their chicks nearby.", "description": "11 p.", "publisher": { "@type": "Organization", "name": "International Crane Foundation" }, "author": [ { "@type": "Person", "name": "Austin, Jane E. jaustin@usgs.gov", "givenName": "Jane E.", "familyName": "Austin", "email": "jaustin@usgs.gov", "identifier": { "@type": "PropertyValue", "propertyID": "ORCID", "value": "0000-0001-8775-2210", "url": "https://orcid.org/0000-0001-8775-2210" }, "affiliation": [ { "@type": "Organization", "name": "Northern Prairie Wildlife Research Center", "url": "https://www.usgs.gov/centers/northern-prairie-wildlife-research-center" } ] }, { "@type": "Person", "name": "Momose, Kunikazu", "givenName": "Kunikazu", "familyName": "Momose", "affiliation": [ { "@type": "Organization", "name": "Tancho Protection Group, NPO, Kushiro, Japan" } ] }, { "@type": "Person", "name": "Archibald, George W.", "givenName": "George W.", "familyName": "Archibald" } ], "funder": [ { "@type": "Organization", "name": "Northern Prairie Wildlife Research Center", "url": "https://www.usgs.gov/centers/northern-prairie-wildlife-research-center" } ] }
