Eagles afraid of humans? (Myth Busted)

Many of us, referring to humans in this case are usually implanted with the idea that birds are dangerous, especially the raptors. Are they?

Well it depends on how you look at it. If one starts harming them, then of course they would retreat and in severe cases even strike back. But generally they are peace loving creatures which tend to enjoy beauty from great heights.And they tend to mind their own business.

But wait a minute, Why on earth was I of a point of view that eagles are afraid of humans? 

Well it wasn't your fault. It is the world wide web which is to to be blamed for this. It all started back in the days when photographers uploading pictures of these raptors added humorous descriptions. They ranged from the very normal to the very extreme including one which went as far as stating "eagles have finally decided to leave their homes due to the sighting of humans". It is so weird how people believed these rumors. And yes not to forget social networking websites on which a rumor is exaggerated way many times especially with the so popular like and share feature.

Don't be fooled. He isn't afraid.

This image is among many which were used to spread rumors that eagles are afraid of humans. And its all so hilarious to see someone actually believing this shit.

So yes eagles are peace loving but make sure you maintain a safe distance from them, after all they are birds of prey.

    1. I the US it's illegal to keep a bird of prey in any shape or form, sorry I think they would be a cool pet to have but just not possible.

  3. I was diagnosed as HEPATITIS B carrier in 2013 with fibrosis of the
    liver already present. I started on antiviral medications which
    reduced the viral load initially. After a couple of years the virus
    became resistant. I started on HEPATITIS B Herbal treatment from
    ULTIMATE LIFE CLINIC (www.ultimatelifeclinic.com) in March, 2020. Their
    treatment totally reversed the virus. I did another blood test after
    the 6 months long treatment and tested negative to the virus. Amazing
    treatment! This treatment is a breakthrough for all HBV carriers.
