Hi Laurie,
The short answer is yes, particularly of Wedge-tailed Eagles in sheep
country. It's more underground than it used to be (they used to string the
carcasses up on their fences), as nowadays public opinion is more against
them as are the laws. However small-minded persecution of raptors is alive
and well.
Regards,
Chris
