The Black Crowned Crane is a bird in the crane family Gruidae. It was once called also Kaffir Crane. It occurs in dry savannah in Africa south of the Sahara, although in nests in somewhat wetter habitats. There are two subspecies: "B. p. pavonina" in the west and the more numerous "B. p. ceciliae" in east Africa.
