Sandhill Crane Removal

|
02.18.2005 - Sandhill Cranes, Grus canadensis are fairly common in Florida. They are a very large bird, with a wingspan of about six feet. I've
read that they are the oldest known extant bird species, with unchanged fossils going back 10 million years. As a dominant bird species, they are usually
fearless of other birds and most other animals, including humans. They became a nuisance in this parking lot of this company, where they routinely threatened
the employees and customers with agressive behavior. I was called in for Sandhill Crane control. I am not allowed to trap or touch or harm the animal, but
as with many nuisance bird species such as Canadian Geese, I was able to employ a system of daily distraction and deterrence via the use of sight lasers and
water jets. These techniques, employed on a daily basis, convinced the birds to stay away from the parking lot, and soon the people were able to use the
parking lot in peace.
