From Deroy Murdock's op-ed in Newsday:
"Lethal take" is Washington-speak for federally approved eagle slaughter. Precise eagle-kill numbers are tough to determine, in part because "other animals gobble the carcasses almost immediately," the Competitive Enterprise Institute [3]'s R.J. Smith explains. About 67 golden eagles are estimated to be killed annually just at Northern California's Altamont Pass wind farm.
