Plans to reintroduce white-tailed eagles to Norfolk have been approved amid industry concerns that the apex predators could prey on vulnerable livestock.
Following a public consultation, Natural England has granted a licence to the Roy Dennis Wildlife Foundation and Wild Ken Hill to release up to 60 white-tailed eagles over 10 years, starting in 2022.
The consultation, which took place in January and February, revealed that 91% of respondents supported the proposals, including 83% of people who were “strongly supportive” and 63% of farmers also indicated support for the proposals.
Wild Ken Hill, a conservation and sustainable farming project on the west coast of Norfolk, said it was “delighted” that the licence had been approved. It insisted the eagles would “fit into the landscape very well”.
