Putin Joins Project to Save Rare Cranes
18:00 GMT 06.09.2012 (Updated: 19:56 GMT 19.10.2022) Russian President Vladimir Putin has taken part in the Flight of Hope project to save a rare bird species, flying in an ultralight with a flock of migrating Siberian white cranes who took him for their leader.
Under the project, young cranes are shown the way to fly from the Yamalo-Nenets Autonomous District via Western Siberia and Kazakhstan to southern Uzbekistan, where "alternative" wintering grounds - the world’s first - are being created.
