Kiaunna Lee, a recent graduate of the Master of Environmental Studies program at the University of Waterloo, chose to research the multi-scale patterns of breeding habitat selection in Sandhill cranes across Canada's eastern boreal forest. In a recently published article, Lee and her co-authors used high-resolution satellite telemetry data to assess how land cover and land use influenced breeding habitat selection of 42 Sandhill cranes in Ontario and Quebec.
