wow they did a good job
Despite the fact that it's fake I'm curious if this has really happened before, if an eagle has actually carried away a child like that.
Eagles are badass

It sometimes happens with small dogs and birds of prey

Maybe when the Haast's Eagle was still alive.
Course Eagle or no Eagle, when you live in a place with one ton flightless birds it's a good idea to keep your small children close...
guys it's a hoax. The creator even specified it on his blog now.
someone post that image where an eagle steals a baby but the army manages to shoot it down
Pretty good CGI, had me fooled. It's still funny though!

[QUOTE=The-Spy;38888165]Golden Eagles carry goats off cliffs then drop them and they were also used to help hunt wolfs in Mongolia; I'm pretty sure he just didn't have a good grip and plus that guy was somewhat chasing behind him. That little guy was lucky![/QUOTE]
Whelp I was beaten to it it seems.

I was kind of trying to go for that in the title and see if anyone noticed, think you were the first one!
If the baby wasn't have enough it would already be gone. Uh!
Well I guess he will have nightmares watching the Hobbit now.
