Iberian imperial eagle

Iberian imperial eagle’s description

I mainly feed on hares and other small mammals, but one of my specialty is to attack smaller birds when they are on the ground. In order to do that, I fly over my prey and swoop on it in an impressive piqué.

Where do I live ?

I live in Spain and in Portugal.

Which threats ?

I am one of the rarest bird of prey in the world ! My main threats are poisonning and electrocution because of high-voltage lines. I also suffer from the lack of prey when rabbits are sick.

Kiwiwho’s word to save the iberian imperial eagle

Since 1990, my population rises again. I am even back in Portugal from where I disappeared during 20 years ! All of this thanks to the conservation plan set up for me in 1987, and the increasing number of protected areas.
