White-tailed eagles were historically widespread across the British Isles, but human persecution and habitat alterations led to their extinction by the early 20th century. Reintroductions have already happened in Ireland, Scotland and the Isle of Wight, with additional releases anticipated (England) or being considered (Wales). Little is known about what biodiversity was lost, rendering it unclear how similar the released Norwegian eagles are to the extinct UK population, and whether reintroductions should ideally draw from a different or wider geographic/genetic background. Furthermore, ecological and genetic monitoring of white-tailed eagle introductions is currently not unified across the British Isles.

白尾老鹰队历史上在不列颠群岛上广泛普遍存在，但是人类的迫害和栖息地改变导致了20世纪初期的灭绝。重新引入已经发生在爱尔兰，苏格兰和怀特岛，预计（英格兰）或被考虑（威尔士）。关于丢失的生物多样性知之甚少，这使得尚不清楚释放的挪威老鹰与灭绝的英国人口的相似之处，以及重新引入是否应理想地从不同或更广泛的地理/遗传背景中汲取。此外，目前在不列颠群岛的白尾鹰引入的生态和遗传监测目前尚未统一。
