Beautiful. Chaos theory at work. Humans trying to control things and nature takes it back.

I want one. A drone-killing falcon that will attack on command. Awesome.

I watched it earlier.

I wonder if the hawk was injured by the spinning rotors.

I was thinking the same thing.

These drones need to be designed to be harmless to wildlife or stay out of the sky.

And they should be designed to be noiseless.

With a little more practice maybe the Hawk can learn to carry it over to the river THEN let go of it. LOL

Hope the hawk didn’t break any of it’s talons; they aren’t designed for metal.

Too bad it wasn’t one of PETA’s that they use to harass hunters and shooters with.
