Introduction
Adult Golden Eagle Satellite Tracking Study 2009
Compared to young Golden Eagles, adults are far less studied on migration with satellite telemetry. This is largely due to the difficulty of capturing wary adults. We feel can learn a lot about Golden Eagle migratory ecology as a whole by studying adults, as they are proven survivors and have completed their migratory journeys many times over.
