Australia's Largest Eagle Attacks Kangaroo

[@SalGriff]

Funny how the bird pounced right where the camera was. One wonders who really killed the wallaby (NOT a kangaroo).

[@SalGriff]

[@zimbabwe_twinnedwithanfield]

That happens a lot. You can always tell and feel the difference between a staged hunt and a natural hunt.

@W W there are no breeds of kangaroos, only species. Wallabies are in the same family but are different species

Mistitled clickbait! A rock wallaby is not a kangaroo and is no bigger than a large cat whereas kangaroos (known as roos downunder) can be as tall as an adult male when they stand up straight.

[@rvrsl]

Naw. Not clickbait, this channel is actually one of the more legit nature channels on YT and I've watched it a lot. It never uses clickbait. I believe this was an actual error, wallaby vs kangaroo.

[@Vegeta.422]

Not just as tall they can grow to be 8ft they are absoldute units, its honestly crazy to think that they are natural prey for this bird, but they are ibe seen it first hand out in the bush its crazy, they team up in pairs and they will take turns swooping and tricking the roo into attacking and also it cornering so it has to make sharp turns, they will do this for hours until the roo grows tired

There have been reports of some that big, but could not be verified. The largest that was actually verified (at least that I could find any information on) had a wing span of 9 ft 4 in. So I would say 10 foot is only a slight exaggeration.

And the Tasmanian sub species of Wedge Tailed Eagle is even bigger.. sadly very endangered though, mainly due to the same humans that wiped out the Tassie Tiger, sheep farmers. "Wedgies" are also scavengers, and will often take to eating road kill. problem is they're so big, and heavy after eating the "free meal", that it takes them ages to take off when a car comes along, often ending up as an ornament on the front or windscreen.

[@UU-ww6hc]

It's not a kangaroo but a wallaby

[@michaeldeierhoi4096]

There are really good views of this eagle in this video. By only complaints are with the overly melodramatic tone of the narration. And claiming the wingspan of the Wedge tailed eagle is almost ten feet is an exaggeration. It's more like 8 feet or about 2.5 m.

It will be very hard to escape from wedge-tailed eagles’ aerial assault in an open field due to the strong and scary talons…😳😳BTW, I am wondering if the eagle could carry the wallaby to the nest…🤔 Thank you for sharing this amazing video! 🤗👍 🔆AniFam〽️

[@rafihaq9321]

Yes it's very likely that it can. I can give an example of a golden eagle. They are known to hunt goats that live on the hills. Golden eagles tend to grab goats on their heads with their vice like talons. They drag them of the cliff and send them plummeting to their demise. However if the hill is high enough, the Eagle glides with the goat clutched on its vice like feet as if its flying with its prey. There was another clip of the Golden eagle that tried to swoop on a 1 or 2 year old infant, it lifted it and was close to flying away but the dad saved his child in time! The wedge tailed Eagle is slightly bigger than the golden eagle with a slightly bigger wing span so catching and flying off with wallabies is something they can do, though I think it's never been recorded on film.

[@AniFam]

@@rafihaq9321 Thank you very much for your excellent comment~🤗 Your explanation makes sense!👍👍 Considering the geographical features in the video, it may be possible for the eagle to glide with the wallaby, which should be smaller than a normal kangaroo…

Cool 😊 when i was a kid 7 years old in september 2001 we were in the states in Santa Barbara the second year . Our second house was on a hill and from the garden we could go to the forest which we never did . Once two coyotes came from the forrest to the garden and went on the street . And golden eagles flew there all the time . And once i was standing in the garden near the forrest close to the house . A golden eagle flew close above my head looking at me 😂 i looked up and saw his face . And quickly ran in the house to hide 😂 once i was on the trampoline a golden eagle lent on the fence that was halfly down and i quickly ran to hide 😂 once i saw with my mom a couple above the house . Did not run only because i was not alone . Once i was walking in the garden and a little black eagle flew over my head made like a turn around and flew away . Once my dad filmed a green hawk on the fence eating a Mouse when i was eating in the garden McDonalds 😊 and once and the only reason i did not run my friend was with me who is older in that time even bigger . And above the trees big black eagle like here flew there . My mom and dad always said dont worry they wont harm you . They did not 😂 but i was scared for years of them 😂

Tell the truth. You make it seem like they can take down prey over 15 lbs. Just like the eagles that claim that they can take down wolves,. it's all lies. Bald eagles can lift weights of up to 6 pounds or half their weight or less. The recorded maximum weight ever was of a fawn that was barely born and weighed about 10 lbs. The eagle grabbed it and attempted to take off but had to drop it after realizing that it could not fly with the added weight. The eagle is not picking up any joeys or kangaroos are anything heavier than 6 lbs. Birds like crows, eagles, owls and the like have been known to dive bomb people walking, jogging and hiking. Out
