Whooping Crane Eastern Partnership

Detailed Description

The Whooping Crane Eastern Partnership (WCEP or “the partnership”) was formally organized in 1999 as a next step in the recovery of the whooping crane in North America.  Following the Whooping Crane Recovery Team’s recommendation that a migratory flock be restored to eastern North America, WCEP founding members came together to plan and carry out such a project, eventually forming a partnership consisting of over nine government and private sector organizations and over 70 people.
