Don’t let the wedge tail come to the end of its tale

for the Tasmanian Wedge-tailed Eagle

Endangered

By Paddy, age 7

Entered 8 August 2026

I drew a wedge tail eagle because it’s a big bird of prey. In my artwork I have shown my animal on a road because they have been hit by cars. I drew oval shapes for the eagle’s leg feathers. He is looking at the car on the road and feeling confused and worried. The car is not in the picture. I felt sad that they can be run over by cars. They can also be killed by people cutting down trees. We can help this eagle by giving it a safe place to live.
