A record 2,898 black-necked cranes have arrived at the Caohai National Nature Reserve in Weining county of Bijie, Guizhou province, to spend the winter, local government monitoring data released showed on Wednesday.
The number of family groups with chicks has risen sharply this season, indicating robust reproductive success.
The black-necked crane is endemic to the country's highlands and depends on specific wetland and grassland habitat conditions.
