[Askar9992]

Golden eagles!

[TheDOBERMAX]

just one word. EPIC

[ThuginAfg]

amazing



[YOTBTUBE]

I am afraid to listen all the video recording.

I listen to it maybe a lot of times, but the I understand a lot of words, a lot of the narrator is saying, for me, that´s rare! I usually understand less speaking, for me his way to speak is very enat and good, for a spanish from Catalonia, only to high school leassons, but keeping steadly learnig in my own. Good english!

[TheXxfloridaxx]

the eagle are some big ass birds

[hms2008w2011]

Why in eagle , female is larger and more aggressive than male?

[69Kambash64]

@hms2008w2011 Because in genes, different than mammals.

[lazy408]

Real life hunters?!! only people that play wow will get this

[TheSuperman220]

what is that hanging from the eagles. a rope?

[AvocadoRogue]

@rory2066664415256 Well, no, "Caucasoids" have practiced forms of falconry for ages upon ages (at least as far back as the Ionians), and I imagine that native Africans have or have had their own forms too. Out of curiosity, why so much disdain for Mongols/Asians?

[rory2066664415256]

@AvocadoRogue no specfic disdain for asians or mongols...this is the most recent example of disgusting antics by humans....i have many targets all over the world..lots from my own country as well.

[Oaglor]

@rory2066664415256 Certain raptor species would be extinct by now if it weren't for falconry! If it weren't for falconers, the Peregrine Falcon would of been wiped out by the continued use of DDT back in the 70's. And how is falconry "recent"? Domesticating animals to use as hunting partners is older than agriculture!

[angusstan]

@rory2066664415256 disgusting antics, you are calling yourself disgusting because it is very likely that your ancestors practiced this to survive just as these people are doing

[79redangus]

I would like to see these people and the land protected.

[treefrog2108]

@79redangus Have no fear..Im going out there next week in a batman costume to prowl the mountains.

[mattxr2i]

I want to learn falconing. I think it's so cool to work with huge raptors like that!

[gymlord]

@mattxr2i I have a Harris Hawk its spiritual m8 trust me.

[mattxr2i]

@gymlord I'll bet! How do you even get a bird like that?

[gymlord]

@mattxr2i. I bought mine from a breeder, lol.

[mattxr2i]

@gymlord How much does a raptor like that cost? And how difficult is it to train them? I've read that the raptor forms a life-long bond with their handler so I am assuming that you have to get them when they are fledglings or not much older. This is something I am thinking about doing when I'm older and have the time for it. I love the outdoors and working with animals. Especialy birds of prey. I just think they are facinating animals.

[Trashfished]

@mattxr2i When you are ready you procure a baby female eagle from a nest in the mountains. When she is 4 years old she is ready to hunt wolves,fox, goats. You will have to find out how to train them. When the eagle is 10 years old they are wanting to breed. So you release them. That is the cycle of it. She may come back to visit but it is over.

[andypazin]

Very nice and educational!!! Congrats.

[superCatia]

[OoOKingOoO007]

Fantastic....!!!

[07979683410]

Excellent, very well put together.

Do more mebnar.

[xxxlotus000]

Interesting, I didn't know that the eagles remained in the wild until winter-time, but that seems to be what the narrator states.

I always assumed they were kept at the trainer's domicile, and taken out, exercised, and trained when necessary. The (evident) fact that these are still wild birds is all the more amazing.

[Magnumscoffeefreek]

from what ive read you can do a number of trainings to a falcons and other birts of prey and depending on which ones you choose it can do fine in the wild untill reclaimed and hunted with.

[g1sdxgrant]

gr8 information and well put together

[khaledkc]

Great Video. A lot of Information. Thank you for posting.

[mihal25]

great "digital story" !! very informative and well done. I think its great that a project like this is taken on by individuals, and shared with others, thanks!

[mebnar]

When stills are used it is called a Digital Story as is stated in the description.

[k9bullet11]

Amazing video. Awesome how nature works. The wolf fighting back, my guess is the wolf attempting to shake the claws off its muzzle. I give much RESPECT to the people who live there.

[Nexaessar]

I saw in other golden eagle videos that the wolves fighting back. Now i really wonder if the eagles are getting some injuries otr not?

[CocodriloNYC]

I want one of them hats

[friendlymonk]

[losteden]

please, i know heave one movie or documentary, but i dont know the neme, help please

[petelcek]

Very interesting and hunour relationship between man and an eagle. I believe that they kept strong connection not only with the birds themselves but olso with the nature around. With other wildlife, animals and country. Those people have to respect it to survive and live there.

[Birdbomb88]

very nice. Good job with this.

[scotta420]

Agreed Very informative

[paklodi]
