WOW, i felt sorry for the wolves, reminds my Husky.

Wow. What a bleak desolate place Kazakstan must be. I could not quite figure out how the eagle accomplished the kill. It appeared to be with the claws rather than the beak.

They run the wolves to near exhaustion as there is no where for them to hide once they locate them and brake them off from the pack.
The eagle kills by penetration of vitals or spine with its talons. Often it is the throat/windpipe or juglar veins.
They are extremely powerful animals

[RWilson2526]

those are some bad *** birds

[reelapeelin]

wow!


Yeah...that's what I thought...notice how the handler fools the bird off its kill w/another piece of meat in the glove...does look like they might lose a bird or two from time to time...

WOW !!!

When I was a kid, I used to love watching birds. I had binoculars, books, cameras with long lenses, and used to go on trips to the forrest just to watch birds in the wild. One day, a friend of mine ( Jose ), brough to school ( 7th grade ) a pair of chicks of Common Buzzard
( Buteo buteo ) which had fallen from a tree. I took one of them home and hand fed him with raw meat and he survived for 4 years. I made a "T" shaped stand on the yard, and he stood there most of the time, I called him "Crazy". He will not fly far, until he was 3 years old, then he started desapearing for days, and came back very light and very hungry. I know he did not ever learn to hunt, although if I gave him live lizzards or mice he will just go really mean and wild and eat them.
I used to carry him on my shoulder around town and he was quiet a show to see.
One day a friend of mine told me that he saw his neighbor kill a Hawk with a Machete when the bird landed on his yard. Sure thing, I went to the man`s house and we found Crazy on the trash can inside a Sandwich Bread bag. I cried a lot. I called the man and asked him why he killed the bird and he just said that he was afraid of the bird because it seemed mean and defensive.
Holding this small hawk was dangerous, the claws, about one inch long, were so powerfull that if it got a grip on your flesh, the claws will easily sink into your body. I can easily understand how easy it is for a big hawk to grab an animal by its neck and just choke him to death.
