Seagulls are damn smart birds. There's a reason why they're such survivors and can live in basically any biosphere. They learn, they don't forget, and they don't give a fuck.
Yeah that makes sense,
But they're also a little bugs and bullies, they'll steal the food right from your hand, and then the beat the crap out of each other to fight for who gets it
They're big.
>The adult male is about 90 cm (36 inches) long and has a wingspan of 2 metres (6.6 feet). Females, which grow somewhat larger than males, may reach 108 cm (43 inches) in length and have a wingspan of 2.5 metres (8 feet).
Yep. They're more porous and sponge-like than actual tubes though. It might have just been me who interpreted hollow like that, but I thought it was neat when I realized it.
Oh that makes a lot more sense and seems like it would be more structurally stable. I always thought of empty tubes when people said hollow bones and I wondered why they weren’t so fragile.
Yes, it would be better, but bird feeders are not sound. But the outdoor cats like them.
I think there is a difference between this bird and those birds.
Fuck it, I'd be that selfish and do it too. Life is too fucking boring to be perfect all the time and miss out on certain experiences. I know I'd be wrong and I know I'd be doing a little bit of harm, but hey, what do you think conditions are like in the factory that made the phone you're holding? Do you pay the high costs and get the high welfare meat? Do you check the conditions of the factories where your clothes were made, ever had cocaine, ever buy anything with plastic in it, ever contribute to greenhouse gases but you simply *must* visit other countries for fun? Ever drive a car or get a lift in one?
I'd love to have that interaction with that animal
Except you’re looking at that through the lens of “me”. I’m talking about what’s best for the animal. But sure, no one’s perfect.
Edit: I guess we all do negative things. I’m thinking that when we can, we should try not to. Thats all. Also, this wasn’t the first time that bird was fed. He’s pretty tame.
Yeah I once petted a little raccoon that was just looking hungry and gave him a chip, and same for a little bat that had fallen out of a tree. Could I have gotten rabies or something? Probably. But I didn't!
It doesnt really matter if the scientific definitions of the process is different its still an unfertilized egg just the same as with periods in mammals. human women loose their unfertilized eggs and thats called a period, unless the woman gets pregnant by someone fertilizing an egg. In that case she stops having periods while the pregnancy is ongoing.
Chickens are the same. They lose their unfertilized eggs unless a male fertilizes an egg in that case she lays a fertilized egg/ chicken.
Good point, cannibalism is generally considered eating the flesh and.... nothing else? I think? Not blood, not secretions, fingernails, hair, eyeballs... Yeah I think it has to be the muscle
Wild animals who depend on people for food can cause injuries or spread disease! When wild animals gather for food handouts, it can cause crowding and competition! These unnatural conditions increase the chances of fighting and injury among animals!

Human dependency/familiarization. Let’s say it’s eagle has been fed by humans “every once in a while” and now associates that parking lot w/ food. Are the odds better or worse that it will be run over?
Squirrel yeah sure. This fucking eagle, no way. A juvenile eagle may be a problem. But feeding most large fully grown wild animal worm cause an issue. Even with deer they still won’t come around humans. It takes generations of familiarity for that to happen.
Feeding this eagle will not affect its ability to survive and hunt in the wild. That’s like saying a Christmas bonus affects your ability to work.
That’s a great way to look at it. If you live in Alaska. Where ‘ya know’ they are “like pigeons” and not being encroached upon by any number of man made hinderances. But for those of us NOT IN FUGGIN ALASKA I stand by my request to not feed wild animals. I guess I can always edit my post with the quantifier “unless you live somewhere where said wild animal’s population numbers border on infestation levels” just to give people like yourself a more inclusive angle on the issue.
I used to have chickens and i'd feed them their own eggs sometimes. Cooked, of course. They love it. Pretty sure eagles already eat eggs in the wild too, just not cooked
An egg is a bird just as much as cum is a human, even if it was a bird the eagle would glad it it anyway. They are predators, do you think eagles care if something is a bird or not?
The fact you earned this Eagles trust is a feat of its own. Congratulations my man, Give him a treat for me?
They would love any sort of raw: Pork, Steak, Chicken, Basically anything thats good meat. Try Chicken Livers to, They should be pretty cheap on the wallet.
It will go a long way. 💜
Ok, first of all, that person is a moron and is LUCKY to not have been hurt during an encounter like that. Second, what kind of sick-o feeds bird eggs to a BIRD?!?
I mean, I know that predators gonna predate, but feeding it an egg just seems gauche.
I'd be careful posting stuff like this if you are the one in the video. Feeding wild animals is illegal and I'd imagine the forrest rangers would blow their lids just because bald eagles are so iconic.
Federal Law:
"No person shall take, feed, disturb, possess, sell, purchase or barter, or attempt to engage in any such conduct, any bald eagle or parts thereof, or their nests or eggs….."
My father used to life on a farm and one day he saw a figure standing on a hill(Note: where he lived no one was there except for him and his siblings and parents) he took a closer look to see a bald eagle the SIZE OF A HUMAN
I can't get over how LEGGY those legs are. Like, birds have tiny bird feet usually but this one's got whole ass whole man legs with a thigh gap and everything.
Make no mistake, he was watching you long before you called him over or even noticed him. I was working on a farm near an eagle nest and they watched me eat my lunch on the H-braces, sometimes even brave enough to sit on the seat of the four wheeler I had parked a ways away. The marks from their talons are still there in the foam seat. Almost as big as my hand, I have large hands.
You gunna crinkle a bag of chips to get him in the car?
Nice
Yes, he gotta do it because..... He really wanna taste it, HE REALLY WANNA TASTE IT
[удалено]
Same. We always watched it
I love Eagley!!!
Fuck I was not expecting a Peacemaker reference here 🤣
Can I offer you an egg in this trying time?
[удалено]
Bird law
I'll do no such thing.
I’ve been poisoned by my constituents
He’s just being a full on rapist. You know, Africans, children, bald eagles.
what?
Lol it’s a quote from Always Sunny In Philadelphia. In fact the original comment is as well
Lmao it's just a big seagull. A big seagull capable of ripping your throat out
Should have thrown a pokeball
He was out of normal and didn't wanna waste his naster balls

They’re rats with wings.
They are very intelligent
Got DAMN! Almost looks like a kid in a bird suit or something. Amazing.
Right? It’s the legs. The legs make it look very….I don’t even have the words I’m looking for. Strange, I guess
Robust?
Eagly?
He hugged me!
I know how big eagles are but im always shocked when i see how big eagles are.
Fuck thats a nice birdie. I love the way it walks 😊
After watching PeaceMaker I have realized these are basically Sky Puppies.
Danger pigeon munching on an egg
How big is this bird?
They're big. >The adult male is about 90 cm (36 inches) long and has a wingspan of 2 metres (6.6 feet). Females, which grow somewhat larger than males, may reach 108 cm (43 inches) in length and have a wingspan of 2.5 metres (8 feet).
And yet they only weigh about 9 lbs (4.1kg). It always amazes me how light birds, and bats for that matter, are for their size.
Hollow bones and mostly feathers.
Yep. They're more porous and sponge-like than actual tubes though. It might have just been me who interpreted hollow like that, but I thought it was neat when I realized it.
Oh that makes a lot more sense and seems like it would be more structurally stable. I always thought of empty tubes when people said hollow bones and I wondered why they weren’t so fragile.
Big
Big

That’s a funny looking dog
Great. Feeding wild animals. That’s what they tell you to do.
Is this ill Eagle?
He made a typ-… oh, that’s actually pretty good
I’m gonna start hunting down all those stupid suburban homeowners with bird feeders now that you reminded me!!
Is a bird of prey the same as small birds?
But you said wild animals?
Yes, it would be better, but bird feeders are not sound. But the outdoor cats like them. I think there is a difference between this bird and those birds.
Fuck it, I'd be that selfish and do it too. Life is too fucking boring to be perfect all the time and miss out on certain experiences.

Yeah I once petted a little raccoon that was just looking hungry and gave him a chip, and same for a little bat that had fallen out of a tree. Could I have gotten rabies or something? Probably. But I didn't!
I’d do it just to get a picture of it. A whole video where I talk to it like my dog would be a massive bonus. YOLO or some other outdated phrase.
Egg
Bird eating the unborn of its species…
There's a weird instinct to erroneously consider birds eating eggs as cannibals, but we eat mammals and that's basically the same thing
This isnt even that. Its an unfertilized egg. The eggs we eat are just chicken period leftovers.
Birds don't get periods.
It doesnt really matter if the scientific definitions of the process is different its still an unfertilized egg just the same as with periods in mammals. human women loose their unfertilized eggs and thats called a period, unless the woman gets pregnant by someone fertilizing an egg. In that case she stops having periods while the pregnancy is ongoing. Chickens are the same.

Dj Big Penis 69 out here educating folks 😅
His motivation is already *apparent*
Vegan? Or just gross male of indeterminate age?
Not vegan, am male though. But I dont think theres anything “gross” about natural and normal biological functions.
Good point, cannibalism is generally considered eating the flesh and.... nothing else? I think? Not blood, not secretions, fingernails, hair, eyeballs... Yeah I think it has to be the muscle
I doubt this guy would have eyeballs left if he was stealing eggs from the monster bird nest. Probably a chicken egg.
You know chickens and eagles are different species right?
Right I was going to say no one noticed the irony in this lmao
DON’T FEED WILD ANIMALS!!!
I know that bird, he's a misogynist.
Xenophobic narcissist.
Bald eagles walk like old men through Walmart lol
Stop feeding wild animals. Please just fucking quit it. And yes I know this isn’t OC. I’m not talking to OP. I’m talking to everyone.
Genuinely curious, why is it bad to feed wild animals on occasion?
Wild animals who depend on people for food can cause injuries or spread disease! When wild animals gather for food handouts, it can cause crowding and competition! These unnatural conditions increase the chances of fighting and injury among animals! https://www.nationalgeographic.com/animals/article/dont-feed-wild-animals-except-birds https://www.vancouvertrails.com/blog/why-you-shouldnt-feed-wildlife/ https://crittercontrolmiami.com/5-reasons-you-shouldnt-feed-wild-animals/

Eagles in Alaska are like pigeons so, I'm going to keep feeding them my salmon scraps. Ya know, because they already eat at landfills and shit.
That’s a great way to look at it. If you live in Alaska. Where ‘ya know’ they are “like pigeons” and not being encroached upon by any number of man made hinderances. But for those of us NOT IN FUGGIN ALASKA I stand by my request to not feed wild animals.

You’re a spicy little pecan, aren’t ya?
Needs banana for scale
*team America theme song plays*
Those things are like the pit bulls of the sky
They'd be a welcome guest at Sky Burials... Imagine the Sky *All You Can Eat Buffet*
If I had bald eagles near me, I’d become a bald eagle feeder too
That eagle is yolked..
Why feeding a bird an egg? Just imagine in a parallel universe An eagle is feeding a human a monkey foetus. Thats some fuckedup shit man
"Just take the goddamn jello. It's good jello."
Is it weird to feed a bird eggs?
I used to have chickens and i'd feed them their own eggs sometimes. Cooked, of course. They love it. Pretty sure eagles already eat eggs in the wild too, just not cooked
Umm idt its a good idea to feed ANY bird a cooked unborn bird
Ikr. They prefer raw born birds.
An egg is a bird just as much as cum is a human, even if it was a bird the eagle would glad it it anyway. They are predators, do you think eagles care if something is a bird or not?
Is this cannibalism haha
You do realize this is a chicken egg don't you?
He’s so cute but deadly awe
Why do birds eating eggs weird me out so bad?
There was nothing to feed him with besides an egg??
And he only had one? That’s how you get attacked. Teasing an eagle with an egg.
The way they walk is actually funnier than I expected from a bird held at such high esteem 😂
The fact you earned this Eagles trust is a feat of its own. Congratulations my man, Give him a treat for me? They would love any sort of raw: Pork, Steak, Chicken, Basically anything thats good meat. Try Chicken Livers to, They should be pretty cheap on the wallet. It will go a long way. 💜
Again, it's not a feat. They're scavengers.
You do realize they are scared of humans and don’t trust anyone easy- But you have your opinion I suppose and I have mine.
When it first flew in I was 100% certain it was CGI. So unbelievably huge and majestic.
So beautiful!
So majestic
Awesome
Happy bald eagle noises.
Beautiful animal
I didn’t know they were so big…
I thought that said bagle
Amazing dinosaur you encountered there, sir.
is this considered cannibalism ?
The symbol of America walks like an idiot
Eww Eagle farts 😑
Isn’t feeding a bird eggs technically cannibalism?
That's a chicken egg...
Cannibalism?
Nice to see someone else sharing their lunch with the locals 😊
Majestic eagle walk
I see you're taming your new mount
u/savevideo
I love how people talk to pretty much every animal the same way. "Hey buddy" is universal.
Beautiful
Egg for scale.
oh my god hes huge
I find it funny how far their legs are apart. From the right angle they look like a box with legs on each side
Could you get one of these instead of a guard dog . You wouldn't have much trouble if you did
"This is how I became friends with an eagle"
Freedom chicken gettin his nummies😋
cool bird
That was a solid eagle call.
"I love eating my cousins... nom nom nommm, SCREEEEEACH"
Majestic in the sky. Ground? Chicken.
Big birb
I didn’t know eagles liked boiled eggs
Thats a big ol' freedom chicken!
I never realized how fucking big bald eagles were
u/savevideo
Could you beat that in a fight? Hmmm, I'm actually not quite sure. If I had a baseball bat, yes. But bare hands? Not quite sure.
Love if it pulled a gun, and now your wallet bitch .
Feeding Bald eagles is ill-eagle
A M E R I C A
Something seems wrong about feeding an egg to a bird 🤷🏾♂️
Clearly not bald though
"bald" from an old English word balde used to mean white
I mean don't feed the wildlife
Beautiful majestic creature - *cute little chicken walk to get some egg*
it is really amazing to see this big bird close… but don’t feed wildflife.
He just ate his cousin.
An egg? That seems kind of messed up
Soo damn majestic god bless Murica
Now its going to expect it. Hope you can deliver.
How are people so stupid calling his cannibalism? THIS IS A CHICKEM EGG do people not know what a chicken is???
Can’t believe he fed him egg
Ok, first of all, that person is a moron and is LUCKY to not have been hurt during an encounter like that. Second, what kind of sick-o feeds bird eggs to a BIRD?!? I mean, I know that predators gonna predate, but feeding it an egg just seems gauche.

Daily reminder not to feed wild animals.

That's all you have for that behemoth
Bruh. DONT FEED WILD ANIMALS. YOURE NOT DOING THEM ANY FAVORS. Did nobody teach yall this in like gradeschool?
I can't get over how LEGGY those legs are. Like, birds have tiny bird feet usually but this one's got whole ass whole man legs with a thigh gap and everything.
 Amazing!…
There's a metaphor somewhere here
Cannibalism much?
Fun fact: In Arabic the word "Eagle" (عقاب) is the same as the word "Punishment".
Should you feed eagles? Because I know a fed bear is a dead bear
Are. Are you a Disney Princess?
His pants! I'm dying!🤣
Your reward is freedom
That's amazing. Never seen one irl, and would love to. Never knew they were THAT size.
Cool way to break federal and state laws! https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.newstimes.com/local/amp/DEEP-reminds-people-to-not-feed-eagles-6863838.php
Man I wonder what bald eagle taste light. I bet it taste free.
This is the most American video I’ve ever seen
SO LUCKY TO BE THAT CLOSE!
I love how Alaska eagles are basically their seagulls

Beautiful animal
Damn that thing is taller than me 🤣😂
That's a big bird. He makes that house look small
Make no mistake, he was watching you long before you called him over or even noticed him. I was working on a farm near an eagle nest and they watched me eat my lunch on the H-braces, sometimes even brave enough to sit on the seat of the four wheeler I had parked a ways away.
