The use of horse terminology to refer to Sandhill Cranes seems a bit archaic and many
people donʼt know these terms now. According to several sources on the Internet, the
fact that crane colts, also known as chicks, are precocious and able to run within 24
hours of hatching led to their being called “colts.”
