Despite being similar in size it is insane how powerful the eagle claws are. Instant kill. I would have thought a wood grouse can stand its ground against an eagle but this video showed the sheer deadliness of the eagle

[@kelechiuboh479]

Like I am shocked!

[@norpriest521]

So it's like 2 grouses fighting each other and then the eagle came to kill both of them 😂 Another grouse acting like "hey, I'm about to fuck that MF up....who are you intervening us?" 😂 The eagle was like "calm down bruh, I'll eat you too. Just wait in line" 😂

[@eds1057]

Those eagles have bone slicing talons that have a tighter grip than a rottewiler's bite. Once the eagle sinks those talons on their victims, it's only a matter of time before they bleed out or the immediate trauma shocks them into submission. Those two never stood a chance.

They actually attack any entity they perceive as a rival on their mating grounds (lek). There are videos of them attacking trucks. When they're so fueled by testosterone they get astonishingly single minded.

[@bogdanferu1160]

Wood grouse fight ferociously... sometimes to the death... I noticed the eagle first attacked the dominant wood grouse, who was actually on verge of beating the other wood grouse... and I would have belived the other wood groused would be gratefull to the eagle after it killed his rival... but thats instinct to you... the other wood grouse was so focused on its fight, that it continued the fight vs the eagle... The eagle is at similar size to the wood grouse and not as agresive, but that goes to show how deadly those tallons are... the first wood grouse was killed in seconds... and then the eagle had enough of the other wood grouse herassement and it probably killed the other one as well...

[@ohlangeni]

After watching the video several times; I think the Grouse and the Golden Eagle are evenly matched in almost all their fighting departments except the beek and the feet. The feet / talons of the Eagle alone caused the death of the first Wood Grouse. The second Grouse fought evenly with the Eagle until the Eagle grabbed it by its powerful feet, then it was all over in a second

[@carloscurbelobrito1251]

I really doubt the first attacked bird died that easily... Birds are pretty tough, and even more this kind. Shame the video isnt longer

Damn nature you're shocking. If the grouse only would've been smart enough (and not in the middle of fight with another groose(, he could've had the chance to fight the eagle better. They are powerful birds too.

[@Eric-zs6rd]

It had ZERO chance no matter how it fought. It's hard to tell because they're about the same size. That eagle is a golden eagle. 4 inch talons on claws with 800 PSI of squeezing power- that's 20x that of an adult human mans grip, more pressure than the bite of an African lion. They even kill small deer and wolves for food. Google it. That's why they were named raptors. It's latin for "to seize" As soon as the eagle got a claw on their chest the grouses entire chest cavity was completely crushed, it's why they both died in a few seconds. The grouse fought by slapping with it's wings and pecking because it thought the eagle was another rival it could show dominance to scare off it's territory and mates. If it was smarter it could have run away and lived another day.

[@brazillo19]

It looks at the end that the golden eagle hot the best of them.
