Abstract
From 2003 to 2009, 254 nests of sarus crane Grus antigone, a globally Vulnerable species with key populations in Cambodia (Birdlife International, 2010), were recorded in the Kulen Promtep Wildlife Sanctuary and Preah Vihear Protected Forest, Preah Vihear Province, northern Cambodia (Fig. 1). For an example of nesting habitat, see Fig. 2. Most nests were reported to researchers of the Ministry of Environment, the Forestry Administration and the Wildlife Conservation Society (WCS) during the course of a bird nest protection programme in the Northern Plains landscape (Clements et al., 2010).
