Eagle Attacks Mountain Goat

[frogmarch]

Warning: This video is shocking and violent. Don't watch it if you are squeamish. I watched it because I didn't believe an eagle would attack a mountain goat.

By the way, I read at a raptor biology site that it's a myth that eagles and other raptors can't let go once they've latched onto their prey. They can.

1. Wow, that's some bad-ass eagle.

2. Both the eagle and goat are tough cookies.

eagle gets rolled on several times and just hangs on. The goat, and his runnin' buddy finally get away.
What a ride!

3. Almost sounds like an old kung fu movie move.

Snake in Eagle's Shadow
Chicken Eating Sparrow
Crane Pecking Mantis

You have no idea how much this amuses me right now.

4. Wow

I amazed they both got up after that tumble. Would have never imagined an eagle would attack something that big.
