Eagles Hunting Wolves in Mangolia!

Post by Vikram » Sat Dec 22, 2012 12:24 am

This is spine chilling stuff.I saw videos of eagles used to hunt jackals/foxes and hares in Kazakhstan/Uzbekistan.This takes it to a whole new level. Those birds were taking down wolves that fight back! BTW, crank up the volume for some fantastic Mongolian throat singing.

Warning: If you are easily affected, please do not watch. This video is not about the ethics of the act. It is about the birds against the beasts which occur in natural settings too.

What an amazing video, Vikram!
It's hard to believe that those Eagles can dispatch wolves with such apparent ease.
Thanks
