Who Works on a Conservation Project?
We have recently completed our 4th Eagle School at Lauder Primary, finishing up with a visit from Falconer, Ray Lowden and his Golden Eagle, Mac. Eagle Schools cover various topics such as raptor identification, eagle lifecycle, diet and some of the challenges they face in the wild. We also look at conservation and the efforts that go into a project such as the South of Scotland Golden Eagle Project. This was an opportunity to talk about the various specialists who contribute to such a project, and for the pupils to ask them some questions. See below for some of the questions and answers.
