Guest rimotu66 Posted September 30, 2015 Report Share Posted September 30, 2015 Fantastic bird but have to wonder if it was injured, that fox was not giving up easily Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
srspower Posted September 30, 2015 Report Share Posted September 30, 2015 I don't think foxes are really suitable prey for an eagle. They wouldn't eat them in the wild, too large with too many teeth! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They wouldn't eat them in the wild, too large with too many teeth! Depends on the individual bird, some are better more efficient killers than others. Golden eagles will take 3/4 grown foxes in the wild quite comfortably. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And I am pretty sure the guy had to finish off the fox too, you can tell by the way they cut it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But that is pretty standard procedure a female finish gos wouldn't struggle with a half grown rabbit but it would still get a screw driver through the top of the head to finish it quick. I'd say that the golden eagle vs fox is no more out of place than a female Harris on hares. There's equal risk for both of those scenarios.
