CyberDodo and the Eagles (1-21)

The eagle is a loyal partner 2/2

The eagle will construct a very big nest (actually several) in which to raise their young (depending on the particular species). After a few months, they will force their young to leave the nest and lead their own life a non-negligible percentage thereof will not survive.

The life expectancy of an eagle varies greatly from one species to another, from fifteen years for a Bonelli's Eagle to more than forty years for a Royal Eagle.

Several species of eagle have by now disappeared as a result of intensive hunting, in particular by farmers who accuse them of having killed their animals. At present, their survival is threatened by pollution, deforestation, rarefaction and the destruction of eagles' hunting territory.

Despite their penetrating vision (they see perfectly at a distance of over 500 metres), their exceptional qualities as predators, and being situated practically at the top of the food chain, they have proven unable to withstand the incredible upheavals they are subjected to by man.

The long-term preservation of the eagle will not be possible if the world's ultimate predator man does not learn to respect Nature !
