Saddest look ever.
That eagle is mean. - Junkyarddawg, on 10/12/2007, -0/+20Foxes *don't* weigh 30 kilos. Most of them weigh in at less than 5 kilos, a few extremely fat foxes (e.g. one which had been gorging itself on pig swill for an entire winter) reach 12 kilos. They're really just slightly heavier than domestic cats; they just look bigger due to their thick fur.
And yes, Golden Eagles, and their lager relatives the Sea Eagles, do kill and eat foxes on a regular basis. - kooft, on 10/12/2007, -0/+19"and their lager relatives"
You mean like drunk in-laws? - chuck2006, on 10/12/2007, -0/+16Video of an eagle fox encounter.

- Junkyarddawg, on 10/12/2007, -0/+7@caseyucf: No, 5 kilos is actually a fair sized fox. They're much smaller than one'd think, really about the same weight as house cats.
- reddevil3, on 10/12/2007, -0/+6An example of a fight: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QvgniwdhJY4&eurl=
- godsfilth, on 10/12/2007, -1/+7well then firefox just got its ass kicked
- inactive, on 10/12/2007, -0/+5BEASTIAL..... oh wait ANIMALITY!!!!!!!!!!!
- inactive, on 10/12/2007, -0/+5all we need now is a giant blue anthropomorphic E getting owned by a fox....
- Biznar, on 10/12/2007, -0/+5The quick brown fox is attacked by the Golden Eagle
- macamatition, on 10/12/2007, -0/+5Yha...yha...anyway I like the little black and white bird trying to escape the fight scene.
- Roger, on 10/12/2007, -0/+4Heh, you're right.
(Came back just to digg your comment) - poppa, on 10/12/2007, -1/+5ROUND 1...FIGHT!
- Brodels, on 10/12/2007, -0/+4The order of photos on that website is kinda misleading with regards to the chain of events. The order from the site below seems to explain it better... unless the Red fox (vulpes vulpes) naturally walks around on its front legs.

- sancho320, on 10/12/2007, -0/+4Wow! that's crazy!
- jgreene777, on 10/12/2007, -1/+5actually, the eagle is apologizing to the fox for the fact that the fox is going to die because he's REALLY hungry and the wife and kids back at the nest are starving...
- Rhine23, on 10/12/2007, -2/+5That eagle has balls...
- MistressRoninS, on 10/12/2007, -0/+3Ahh reminds me of being Link in wolf form in Twilight Princess..
- Adenosine, on 10/12/2007, -1/+4Those were Magpies (Pica pica)
- brotherfranciz, on 10/12/2007, -0/+3Pffft, hunters throwing 'china' at geese and ducks... that's the first time I heard of such a method...
- vroom101, on 10/12/2007, -0/+3Bald eagle at NASA KSC decides not to take on a car: http://chamorrobible.org/gpw/gpw-20060927.htm
- MrTea, on 10/12/2007, -1/+3lol owned
- headzoo, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2Prrf.. and Benjamin Franklin wanted the turkey to be America's national bird. Yeah right..
http://html.clickondetroit.com/sh/holidays/stories/holidays-20001113-135438.html - quiltmaster, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2It didnt say 30kg fox is said "30 kg wolf"
- drizek, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2They do that in china too. I dont think they go after things this large, but they do go hunting for geese and ducks with hawks.
- mookieXL, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2Hmmm, Looks like the fox needs EagleBlock extension.
- cybersnafu, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2Stephen Jr. is kicking ass and taking names! BOOYA!
- TeddyRoosevelt, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2Does anyone have any pictures or video of an eagle taking out a kangaroo?
- orbit1979, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2That was a big f*cking bird! If it came at me I am not ashamed to say that I would run out terror of my eyes being plucked out or some ***** like that.
I digg it. - theRIAA, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2...FINISH HIM... *sching* ..FLAWLESS VICTORY... EAGLE WINS
- MasterChi, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2Not really, eagles are huge(7 foot wingspan) and powerful and have really sharp claws. Why do you think trainers were those thick gloves just to hold the bird? If that thing grabbed your skin with its claws you won't be able to get it off and it can take its time pecking you with its sharp beak till your down and out so I am not surprised the fox went down.
- theRIAA, on 10/12/2007, -2/+3ive been looking for a good "OWNED" pic...
- Screwy1138, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1Very interesting article as well as pictures. The bit about eagles being trained to hunt wolves was neat.
- saegiru, on 10/12/2007, -1/+2Well WTF. I posted this 4 days ago, and no one dugg me. I guess my "Fox gets pwned by Golden Eagle" title was too lame to warrant checking out. /sigh
- fatlip, on 10/12/2007, -1/+2yeah good thing that didnt happen... and its a good thing the golden eagle isnt either
i forgot what your point was - pirashkee, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1I want some of whatever that bird has taken.
- danimal84, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1larger pic: http://www.flickr.com/photo_zoom.gne?id=200443441&size=o
- madchemst, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1Where's the big surprise here exactly? The Eagle can retreat back up into the air and swoop down at any moment on top of the fox. They both have approximately the same weight and the Fox has no advantage unless the bird is beneath or in front of him.
Let me know when you see an Eagle take on something of substantial mass and I'll be really impressed. - Anthem26, on 10/12/2007, -2/+2i don't understand how people are surprised by all of this, i mean, they did take on Sauron's dragons in the Lord of the Rings...
- ionbattle, on 10/12/2007, -3/+1http://eaglepwnage.ytmnd.com/
- danimal84, on 10/12/2007, -3/+1i don't think they are trying to escape, i think they just want any leftovers...
- inactive, on 10/12/2007, -5/+0this is not a fox, its coyote
- rosswf, on 10/12/2007, -11/+6http://img101.imageshack.us/img101/1945/pwnedxh0.jpg
:) - mumblingmynah, on 10/12/2007, -7/+1nvm
- Tolzmaniac, on 10/12/2007, -7/+1Anybody else think this was going to have to do with Firefox?
