Russian: Могильник
German: Kaiseradler
French: Aigle imperial
Mongolian:  Хан бүргэд
Japanese: カタジロワシ (Katajiro-washi)


Status:
Rare species. According to the IUC
N RedList categories and criteria, the species evaluated as-Vulnerable.

Distribution and Range: Breeds in Russian Federation, Hungary, Balkan and Pyrenean Peninsulas, Cyprus, Turkey. North Iranand Morocco.Winters in Africa all the way to Ethiopia, in Southern Asia from Iraq to southern China. In Mongolia: Breeds in the Khentii, Khovsgol Mountains, Orkhon and Selenge River basins. It migrates through the breeding areas, forested areas, forest steppes, open drylands, mountain slopes near Altai, Middle Khalkh and Eastern Mongolian steppes, the Bulgan River valley in Khovd aimag. Migrating birds were sighted grazing on the Khar Us Lake, Zavkhan and Selenge rivers in Khovd Aimag, Khujirt and Orkhon Rivers in Ovorkhangai Aimag. From the satellite tracker data, juvenile, young birds migrated from the southern border of the Russian Federation near Ulaanbaatar, further through the Sukhbaatar Aimag territory. On migration passage on a vast area from forest steppe to desert steppe 1-2 are sighted rarely.

Habitat: The breeding pairs build large nests on old tall trees of mixed deciduous and coniferous forests in river valleys of taiga, forest steppe zones.

Population and Threats: In Mongolia, the species are breeding visitors and passage migrants. Threats: Mining developments in the breeding areas, treel logging for commercial and household needs, establishing tourist camps, not only degrades and destroys the breeding habitat, but also causes disturbances restricting them from peacefully rasing their new families. Forest fires also destroy the nesting and summering habitats. During fall migration, Arab falconers have been trapping falcons using pigeons, accidental death occur from being trapped instead of falcons. During fall migration, breeding season might die from ingesting poisons and pesticides used against the Brands voles, and forest invasive pests.

Conservation Measures: Listed as Rare animal in the Annex to the Mongolian Government Resolution #7 (2012), included in the Annex II CITES, Annex I and II CMS, and the Asia Red Data Book for Birds (2001).

Further Actions: Assess and monitor the distribution, population abundance, reproductive biology and ecology research, improve conservation measures for endangered birds within the NSPAN.
