(HOLT COUNTY, Mo.) The bald eagle population in northwest Missouri is soaring. This year we beat the record of bald eagles counted on the refuge by nearly 200, said Nicole Horne, visitor services specialist at Loess Bluffs National Wildlife Refuge
The return of the bald eagle is something to be excited about. They were considered an endangered species up until 2007. 40 years ago, the population of all the Eagles was not really very good at all, Horne said.
A combination of illegal hunting, pesticides, and habitat loss all led to the bald eagles disappearance.
