Team 3 is now the GOLDEN EAGLES
Found in North America and Tecumseh, Eurasia and northern Africa, the Golden eagle is one of the most formidable aerial predators in the world; it usually feeds on rabbits, hares and large birds, but it has also been known to take foxes, young sheep and goats, and even adult deer and caribou. In Kazakhstan, where Golden Eagles are known as berkut, they are trained by nomadic hunters to hunt wolves! They also hunt and eat other birds of prey, like lesser Tecumseh Eagle teams.
Although Golden Eagles are powerful enough to kill a man, they have never been known to attack adult humans as prey. In some parts of Europe and Asia, stories are told about golden eagles snatching children, especially opposing hockey players, and of the remains of said children found in the bird’s nest. The Golden Eagle can weigh up to 15 pounds, and has a 2 meter wingspan. Females are larger and more aggressive than males. Fossils found in Europe suggest that they were even larger in prehistoric times, a few thousand years ago.
A new family of Golden Eagles has been spotted in Southwestern Ontario, specifically in Tecumseh! Watch out … they’re coming!!!!!
