It came after the department had found dead wedge-tailed eagles in the area as recently as several weeks ago which were brought to their attention by locals.

The three officers spent several days searching the property and scouring paddocks, and uncovered more than 120 native birds, which included 76 wedge-tailed eagles as well as kites, hawks and falcons.
