Which future for the Red Kite Milvus milvus in Sardinia? An analysis of the future scenario of developing wind farms #ITA

Capsule: Red Kite populations in Sardinia are very small but show a strong spatial overlap with current and planned wind energy infrastructure, highlighting a conservation concern. Aims: To assess the status of the Red Kite population in Sardinia and evaluate the potential conflict between its distribution and the development of wind energy. Methods: Breeding populations were surveyed through road transects, while wintering numbers were assessed with coordinated roost counts. Spatial overlap with operational and planned wind farms was analysed using . . .
