The National Parks and Wildlife Service (NPWS) has issued an appeal for information on the death of a white-tailed eagle in the Midlands.
The year-old male eagle died after ingesting a poison used as pest-control. It was found on lands between Lough Ramar, Co Cavan and Lough Sheelin, Co Westmeath last November.
