You've likely heard the "don't try this at home" disclaimer before and that's definitely the case with what I have found to share with you. It's video of a bald eagle that a family rescued in their backyard.
Wind farms have been a controversial issue for many years. That is likely to intensify after a company that has wind farms in Illinois and many other states has pled guilty to killing eagles.
There are a lot of road hazards in our part of America. One you don't ever want to be in that category are bald eagles, but that's exactly what happened in Missouri today. Fortunately, Missouri State Troopers were able to save the bird.
We know that eagles are predators that have few rivals in the skies. What happens though when 2 eagles fight each other? One lady found out when she shared video of 2 birds who had their talons locked together. There is a happy ending though.
You might be a big and bad fisherman, but you're not as big and bad as a midwestern bald eagle who just showed off his power by hauling in a huge carp.
If you're not familiar with what eagles eat, the answer is whatever they want. Imagine the surprise for this large bird of prey who was outsmarted by a coy rabbit who made the jump of his life.
