Worth remembering here that the WTSE was (legally) originally wiped out to protect British foodstocks in the way of lambs during the First World War. Just because the birds are a different generation doesn't mean that they've changed habits and instinct that's accrued over centuries. The crofters know this and understandably feel a bit miffed that everyone now officially denies that the WTSE takes lambs at a time when they can't afford a single loss.

I personally think that everyone needs to accept that the eagles are back, they eat lambs and there should be compensation paid to the crofters on an annual basis - and this is what discussions/negotiations should be based on, not wasting time arguing over transmitters etc.

BTW I'm not linked with eaither camp, just a subject I've followed for a long time.
