One of the most powerful eagles and, in Venezuela, is the largest species. Its body can measure up to a meter high and its wings open up to two meters wide; The female can weigh up to nine kilograms. The head, white, has a very characteristic and striking crest, whose grayish plumage, erectile at its will, resembles the shape of horns. The back of the body and the wings are black. The plumage under the wings and torso is white, and only the chest at the top is crossed by a black broadband. The black tail has three gray bands. Its curved beak is very strong; The tarsus is thick, featherless and light yellow. It has very developed claws, up to seven centimeters in the back finger. Although more agile and fast, the male is smaller than the female. His acute vision and hearing, and the strong peak, make him an excellent predator that reaches speeds of up to 200 km / h.

Yes, I insist, I am terrified to know that I am close to the habitat of these animals ... Imagine that you are at night in the backyard and something like that looks at you hahaha

If he is a friend, the worst thing is that those who have seen him in the forest say that it is something aggressive and elusive and usually chases you to the end if you bother her

I was thinking of the awesome flight of any eagle itself I did not notice the problem he had although I understand that they are keeping him safe which is a great thing.

It would be best, a curious fact now that you have mentioned it, is that in the photo this eagle appears with a kind of tools like shackles on its legs, but far from cruelty, this bird is particularly in captivity and this eagle is blind, it this has been placed to prevent her from flying and harming herself.

Are they friendly? Do they bite or attack? Have you see one in person and what was it like seeing it?

One of the wonders of our country, which is in danger due to the laziness of those who "govern us"

Unfortunately, if our government invested more time and money in conserving such wonderful wildlife instead of making enemies around the world, I believe that we would be more productive and preserve the environment. but no!
