TASMANIAN WEDGE Tailed Eagle 100$ Niue Islands 2012
Theme Background:
The subspecies from Tasmania (Aquila audax fleayi) is listed as endangered by the Environment Protection and Biodiversity Conservation Act 1999 (EPBC Act) with fewer than 200 pairs left in the wild. Like the Thylacine, the eagle was once subject to a bounty in Tasmania, as it was believed to prey on livestock.
Decreasing numbers of Tasmanian devils may be beneficial to the Wedge-tailed Eagles in Tasmania, as it could reduce competition for roadkill and devil predation on Wedge-tailed Eagle young.
