Authorities are investigating the cessation of satellite transmissions from a juvenile white-tailed eagle in the North York Moors.

當局目前正在調查北約克沼地一隻幼年白尾海鵰衛星訊號中斷的原因。

The subject, identified as G834, was the first specimen of its species to be born in the wild in Dorset in approximately 240 years. This avian individual was part of a broader reintroduction initiative managed by Forestry England and the Roy Dennis Wildlife Foundation, which has released 45 eagles since 2019. The bird's location was tracked via satellite until April 30, after which transmissions ceased overnight on May 1. Consequently, the National Wildlife Crime Unit has classified the disappearance as suspicious, prompting a formal inquiry by North Yorkshire Police.

該個體編號為 G834，是約 240 年來首隻在多塞特郡野外出生的同類品種。這隻鳥屬於由英格蘭林務局與 Roy Dennis 野生動物基金會管理的更廣泛重新引入計劃的一部分，自 2019 年以來已釋放 45 隻海鵰。該鳥的位置透過衛星追蹤至 4 月 30 日，隨後在 5 月 1 日一夜之間訊號中斷。因此，國家野生動物犯罪小組將此次失蹤列為可疑事件，促使北約克郡警方展開正式調查。

Historically, the white-tailed eagle was extirpated from southern England during the 18th century due to anthropogenic persecution. While the current reintroduction project has seen successful breeding—including five additional wild-born chicks—it has encountered friction with certain stakeholders. Specifically, members of the gamebird shooting community have opposed the program. Although a 2024 study indicated that the eagles' dietary preferences (including cuttlefish and rabbits) did not result in livestock conflicts, a pattern of avian mortality persists. This incident follows the 2022 discovery of two deceased eagles and the suspicious disappearance of three others in Sussex and Wales during the previous year.

歷史上，白尾海鵰在 18 世紀因人為迫害而於英格蘭南部滅絕。儘管目前的重新引入計畫取得了成功的繁殖成果——包括五隻額外野外出生的雛鳥——但它與某些利益相關者產生了摩擦。具體而言，獵鳥射擊社群反對該計畫。雖然 2024 年的一項研究表明，海鵰的飲食偏好（包括墨魚和兔子）並未導致與牲畜發生衝突，但鳥類死亡的模式依然存在。此次事件發生在 2022 年發現兩隻死亡海鵰，以及前一年在薩塞克斯郡和威爾斯有三隻海鵰可疑失蹤之後。

The North Yorkshire Police continue their investigation into the disappearance of G834.

北約克郡警方將繼續調查 G834 的失蹤事件。
