Is it in Mongolia where the men use eagles to attack and kill wolves in order to protect their livestock?

For the sport of it or for the food?

Maybe it was for sport.  According to the original article, an eagle killed a bear cub back in 2004, that's crazy.

this is why PETA doesn't like eagles and California is considering banning them.

I'm guessing it's a serious snack. The left overs are going to be a meal, maybe the Eagle will use it as bait and take a few scavenging critters down.

 I got a couple eagle/deer .gifs from the net, but can't post due to file size. The first is a take down in a field where the bird grabs it and rolls over. The other is where it picks it up and drops it over a cliff. A search will find these and more on Imgur. |

Golden Eagles are Bad Mothers. Regularly see them intimidate Bald Eagles in their summer range around Lake Granby.

I would't be caught dead holding a big bird like that without some big ass gloves on. Can you imagine what a bite it could take out of you.

I was playing on:
. Official 2013 Hunting Season Thread . wherein some expressed concern about killing for sport, etc. Obviously, that Eagle is a serious hunter of food...a killing beast! . I wonder how long it takes for that deer to be rendered helpless.
