Conservation group BirdLife Tasmania is calling on state and federal governments to implement a strategic approach to wind farms that considers all environmental effects.
BirdLife spokesman Dr Eric Woehler says wind farms have an unintended impact on critically endangered birds, with 29 cwedge-tailed eagles flying into overhead power-lines on Tasmanian wind farms just last year alone.
BirdLife Tasmania says the construction of 10 further wind farms in the state will threaten the migrating orange-bellied parrots and other critically-endangered species.
