Review of deaths and behavior of large birds of prey on power grid facilities in Tatarstan and Udmurtia (Russia), problems of modernization of 6–10 kV overhead power lines
The report analyzes the deaths of large birds of prey on power grid facilities of Tatarstan previously published in the literature since 2012 and additional ones, identified since 2019, including in the neighboring region – Udmurt Republic. Analysis of the data shows that immature Imperial Eagles (A...
