VIDEO: Best Eagle Attacks Ever Caught on Camera

There have been quite a few amazing eagle attacks in recent years. Luckily all of these extraordinary fights have been caught on camera so that we can watch them again and again and understand just how wonderful and powerful these birds are. You have to watch the video and see exactly what they are capable of.

According to usareturn.com, eagles are apex predators, meaning they are at the top of the food chain.

What eagles eat depends upon the species and the food that is available to them, but they are all carnivorous and live on a diet of meat and/or fish.
Eagles are admired the world over as living symbols of power, freedom, and transcendence.

Eagles are some of the largest birds. They are at the top of the food chain, with some species feeding on big prey like monkeys and sloths.

Eagles have amazing eyesight and can detect prey up to two miles away.
With the exception of some vultures, eagles are generally larger than other birds of prey.

They have strong muscular legs, powerful talons and large hooked beaks that enable them to rip the flesh from their prey.

Eagles vary in size. One of the smallest species, the little eagle, is around 17.7–21.7 in (45–55 cm).

In contrast, Stellers’s sea eagle is around 36–42 in (91–106 cm) in size, and wingspan can reach approximately 72–96 in (2–2.5 m).

Eagles are apex predators, meaning they are at the top of the food chain.
Eagles can be divided broadly into four groups; sea eagles, booted eagles, snake eagles and giant forest eagles.

Booted eagles have a relatively wide diet consisting of birds, small mammals, reptiles, rodents, amphibians and insects, whereas others are more restricted.

Sea eagles or fish eagles feed mostly on a diet of fish whilst snake eagles specialise on capturing reptiles.

Giant forest eagles feed on various forest animals.

One of the largest eagles, the Harpy eagle, feeds on larger animals including monkeys, sloths and coatis.

According to wikipedia.org, eagle is a common name for many large birds of prey of the family Accipitridae; it belongs to several groups of genera that are not necessarily closely related to each other.

Most of the 60 species of eagles are from Eurasia and Africa. Outside this area, just 14 species can be found – two in North America, nine in Central and South America, and three in Australia.

Eagles are large, powerfully built birds of prey, with heavy heads and beaks.

Even the smallest eagles, such as the booted eagle (Aquila pennata), which is comparable in size to a common buzzard (Buteo buteo) or red-tailed hawk (B. jamaicensis), have relatively longer and more evenly broad wings, and more direct, faster flight – despite the reduced size of aerodynamic feathers.

Most eagles are larger than any other raptors apart from some vultures. The smallest species of eagle is the South Nicobar serpent eagle (Spilornis klossi), at 450 g (0.99 lb) and 40 cm (16 in).
