There are two species of eagles in Europe - the golden eagle (Aquila chrysaetos) and the white-tailed eagle (Haliaeetus albicilla).
Golden eagles are found throughout Europe, from Scandinavia to Spain and as far east as Siberia. They prefer mountainous terrain and can be spotted in the Alps, Pyrenees, and Carpathians. They feed on a variety of prey including rabbits, hares, birds, and even larger animals like deer and foxes. Golden eagles typically mate for life and build large nests on cliffs or rocky outcrops.
White-tailed eagles are also found throughout much of Europe, from the Arctic to the Mediterranean. They are often spotted near coastlines and large bodies of water and feed on fish, birds, and small mammals. Like golden eagles, they also mate for life and build large nests on cliffs or in trees.
Both species of eagles in Europe have undergone significant declines in the past due to habitat loss, persecution, and pesticide use. However, conservation efforts such as habitat preservation, hunting restrictions, and reintroduction programs have helped to stabilize populations in some areas.
