A worldwide community photographing and learning about wildlife
This sad eagle is just one of the many birds with no freewill, they are in a big cage. They should not be in here.. they should be in the forest
I know the feeling about a gorgeous raptor like this in captivity. I worked in Davao with the Philippine Eagles for my post-grad internship. Besides the "Haring Ibon", we had a White-breasted Sea Eagle like this one. Unfortunately, with the Philippine habitats disappearing so fast, it is a sad fact that zoos and wildlife parks may be the last hope for many of the Philippine's incredibly amazing birds and other wildlife. :(
At least this fellow (lady?) seems to be in good shape..good feather, good weight, bright eyes, good posture. Even standing on one foot- as sign of comfortable-ness.
Thank you for posting this. I never get tired of seeing the Philippine species here.
Yes :(
I dunno how to address this to the public. I'll Edit the description
I have pity on this bird, caged in one of the wildlife in the philippines
