In a national effort to save the iconic bird, the federal government banned the use of DDT in 1972 and placed the bald eagle under protection of the Endangered Species Act, which allowed the government to protect bald eagle habitat. These two key factors helped it recover, according to the Fish and Wildlife Service. Bald eagles can live more than 30 years in the wild, longer in captivity. 2  They mate for life, building nests in the tops of large trees. 3  Bald eagles normally lay two or three eggs once a year. 4  The distinctive white head and tail feathers appear only after the bird is 4 or 5 years old.
