WC-1 The proportion of whooping crane use will increase with
land management of habitat complexes and clear/level/pulse.
WC-2 The alternative is that the proportion of whooping crane
use will not increase with this type of Program land management.
Whooping cranes prefer palustrine wetlands to river channel
during migration and whooping crane use will increase
proportionally to increase in palustrine wetlands (800 acres? Is a
graph needed for this hypothesis?)
9,200 acres of habitat complexes
