[@LimitedEditionEDC]

Im almost certain this was a domesticated eagle. A wild animal simply wouldn't behave like that to doctors treatments. Otherwise theres no way he could be so calm and tired to not flap his wings or try to resist even once. Bald eagles are some of the greatest hunters after all, they really can do damage and will be defensive - the wild ones at least. Im worried very unprofessional people see videos like this and think they can get close to these animals. Either way this was obvious handled exceptionally professional. Don't try this at home!

[@molly-blue7822]

@shawnwilcowski Things are not that dark. What state do you live in? Any one of us could come across an eagle or a ram caught in a terrible way. If you believe you'll be in trouble for saving an animal, others might believe you and let the animal die. It's best not to say anything negative like that at all. Just thank the rescuer and leave it at that. If you don't know how or don't have the necessary tools to free and care for an injured animal, what do you suppose you might do? I hope it's not walk away out of fear of breaking the law. I hooe you'd take pics of its location and phone your local wild animal rescue or whatever agency in your area. You could even phone your fire dept and let them know. I've not had the honor of rescuing a large rapter, but of saved a aeagull, a mouse, a rabbit. A box turtle or two. One bird was trapped in the flu of my potbelly stove. I called wild animal control. He and I dismantled the flu to free it. We wanted to check it for injuries, but it was so anxious to be out of the pipe. As soon as the pressure was off it, it flew away. So there's that.

Furthermore, parents in some species even neglect smaller chicks that beg more and preferentially feed the biggest chicks that beg less," the study authors write.

She’s licensed to rehabilitate these birds. There are only a handful of people licensed for eagles per state. it’s a federal license and you can’t even possess one of these birds without one. The licenses are issued to individuals, not organizations. To get the license requires extensive training and rather significant and expensive facilities, including huge flight cages which require a good bit of land. Most are based out of the rehabber’s home.

I don't understand why people think bald eagles are pretty. I mean I get their size is impressive and really leaves one in awe, esp if seen in person. However, when I think of BEAUTY and BIRDS my thoughts go to their PLUMAGE + COLORATION. When just taking those two features into account, I feel the bald eagle is overrated. Imo it's plumage is dull lacking the multitude of color tones found in many other raptor species and the bright yellow beak and talons make the bird look downright homely. Frankly, (imo) when compared to eagles like the golden eagle, the white belly sea eagle, or even the sometimes odd looking philippine eagle the bald eagle just can't stack up. So I'm asking those who commented abt bald eagles beauty; what exactly do you find beautiful abt them?
