The International Crane Foundation (ICF) is a nonprofit, nongovernment organization that works worldwide to conserve cranes and the ecosystems, watersheds, and flyways on which they depend. ICF provides knowledge, leadership, and inspiration to engage people in resolving threats to cranes and their diverse landscapes. ICF champions cranes as ambassadors for conservation – serving both as sentinels and flagships for safeguarding some of the most important places on Earth.
