ORIENTAL WHITE STORK (!)
Differences in migration strategies between rescued juvenile and adult Oriental white storks(Ciconia boyciana) and the conservation implications
The Oriental white stork (Ciconia boyciana), an endangered species with around 2,500 individuals globally, has limited data on its behaviors, especially migration and habitat use. This study tracked 11 storks (9 juveniles, 2 adults) rescued in the Sanjiang Plain using GPS/GSM telemetry. While all individuals joined wild migrating groups, juvenile migration routes were more variable than those of adults. Juveniles showed a preference for artificial habitats, such as rice paddies and fish farms, which may lead to human-wildlife conflict and affect their survival. Notably, eight of the nine juveniles died by the end of the study. These findings highlight the risks of releasing rescued juveniles into unsuitable environments, underlining the need to minimise human contact and reduce their reliance on artificial habitats for better long-term survival.
