White-tailed eagles have been released on Exmoor as part of an ongoing reintroduction project led by Forestry England, the Roy Dennis Wildlife Foundation and Exmoor National Park Authority.
Six young birds were released, with up to 20 more planned over the next three years to help establish a breeding population in southwest England. The birds are fitted with satellite trackers and will be closely monitored. Read more about the reintroduction and the briefing on how the project is working to answer farming concerns below:
