“…Additionally, this approach would require some a priori indication of the eagle activity present at a site. One option would be to use national occupancy or abundance datasets like the Cornell occupancy model for bald eagles (Fink et al 2010) or the Service's spatially explicit golden eagle exposure models (Bedrosian et al 2020) as a representation of eagle activity rate. These models are already being considered by the Service as a proximate measure of eagle activity as part of a proposed low risk eagle take permitting alternative.…”

“…Dwyer et al (2020a) for example provides a map of distribution power pole density throughout much of the western USA. Although previous maps of pole density were already available for Colorado and Wyoming (Dwyer et al 2016), and for other portions of the western USA (Dwyer et al 2017), this new work expands the range of pole density mapping in North America, makes that mapping more accessible, and serves as a foundational component of Bedrosian et al (2020). Understanding pole density is also useful in understanding implications of Dwyer et al's (2020b) study of Golden Eagles that perch on power poles.…”

“…The intent of the Conservation Letter is to provide a scientific review of raptor interactions with power lines and serve as a go-to publication for the perspective of the Raptor Research Foundation. The hope is that the combination of novel study areas described (Dixon et al 2020, Heck and Schwartz 2020, Kemper et al 2020, Sarasola et al 2020, novel data (Bedrosian et al 2020, Dwyer et al 2020a, 2020b, 2020c, Smith et al 2020, Tincher et al 2020, and a Raptor Research Foundation Conservation Letter (Slater et al 2020) will enable readers of this special issue to identify areas where additional work is needed to mitigate negative interactions between raptors and electric systems. The special issue is missing recent European perspectives.…”

“…Electrocutions in western North America include approximately 500 Golden Eagle fatalities annually (95% CI: 124-1494; US Fish and Wildlife Service [USFWS] 2016). These electrocutions occur widely across the species' range in North America from Canada (Kemper et al 2013), through the USA (Harness 2004, Dwyer 2006, Dwyer et al 2014, Bedrosian et al 2020, and into Mexico (Cartron et al 2000(Cartron et al , 2005. Of these electrocutions, approximately 20% involve adults, 27% involve subadults, and 53% involve juveniles (Mojica et al 2018).…”
