Half of the worlds 70,000 live in Alaska. They fluorish in North America due to the high amount of Salmon. Eagles are a member of the Accipitridae Family which also includes hawks and kites. They are now considered an Endangered Species since 1967. More information can be found on http://www.eagles.org/moreabout.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Turtle Posted August 20, 2006 Report Share Posted August 20, 2006 I understand that Zoology is a branch of Biology, which is why there should be large discussion on it. There is no zoo in zoology, wrote Charles Harrington Elster. (There Is No Zoo in Zoology: And Other Beastly Mispronunciations by Charles Harrington Elster ) You may have missed our birding thread in the Earth Sciences section. Our member Cedars has nesting Bald Eagles nearby & regularly describes their activities. I like birding myself and photograph them from time to time.
