My parents have a full mounted wedge tail eagle taxidermied. It was found only recently dead in a paddock. What happens is farmers poison grain to kill galahs eating in their new crops. Wedgetails eat the galahs and if enough poison accumulates it can kill them. We have very few wedgtail eagles near here. Used to see one flying high over sometimes. Used to know where a nest was in th hills. Looked at it two decades ago and it had fallen apart. Pity. The farmers don't like them for eating lambs though.

I do like the full mounted with wings spread out wedgie though. They were very lucky it was so fresh. Only a little damage on the visibl skin is noticeable. A local guy mounted it. Very talented for a self taught person.
