“Even just one year of losses of productivity like we’ve documented regionally is very concerning and could have effects for decades to come if representative of broader regions,” said an associate professor at UGA’s college of veterinary medicine.
Bald eagle nest failures and deaths are piling up at an “alarming rate” as a result of the highly infectious avian influenza, University of Georgia researchers announced this week.
“We had reports from people who faithfully monitor eagle nests year after year with these heartbreaking stories of an adult eagle found dead below their nest, Nemeth said. “Within a few days, often its mate and the chicks were also found dead below the nest. It is clear the virus is causing nest failures.”
The influenza was documented in Georgia’s bald eagles for the first time in April 2022 after dead eagles were found in Chatham, Glynn and Liberty counties in March.
