Abstract: The present study is designed to analyze the population of Indian Sarus Crane (Grus antigone antigone) in and\r\naround the Alwara Lake of district Kaushambi (Uttar Pradesh) India in 8 consecutive years from 2012 to 2019. The sarus\r\ncrane is the only resident and non-migratory breeding crane of Indian subcontinent. This bird is now globally threatened due\r\nto the shrinking in the extent and quality of their wetland habitats, reduction in suitable mating sites and increased\r\nanthropogenic activities. In the present study, authors attempted to count the number of sarus crane in 8 consecutive years\r\nfrom 2012 to 2019 in the same study area. This systematic analysis reflects an increase in the number of sarus crane at\r\nsustainable level in the area studied.
