A biologist at the Maine Department of Inland Fisheries and Wildlife recently got word about the July 2019 attack, the Bangor Daily News reported Wednesday.
Danielle D'Auria believes it to be one of the strangest cases of eagle death she has ever seen. The bird had been found with a puncture wound in its chest by a loon biologist in New Hampshire.
A dead loon chick was also discovered near the eagle. When D'Auria heard about the case she had the bird radiographed for a possible bullet wound as it is illegal in the U.S.
