That was a nice thing to do for an eagle.
I was hoping to see how the warden got the bird in that cage, since the bird was still able to hop and flutter around some.
Maybe he threw a blanket over the bird, to make it still for a moment.

Actually it is
Nothing wrong with a feel good story

That game warden is running around with an ASSAULT WEAPON!
Out to slaughter countless innocent children and animals, no doubt. Why else would he need such a dangerous weapon?

Good story, good on the warden. But a private citizen had better not do that!
To: Nifster
Nope your correct.
Nature work in mysterious ways.

Good point and try to explain to that same warden you were just being a nice guy.Yea right.
To: doorgunner69
To bad he wasnt in Parkland,fl 2/14. Only chickens there on that day
To: SJackson
Great story, thanks for posting it.
As a side note, on my various pheasant hunting trips to N.W. Kansas via car, I've never seen so many raptors in my life along the East to west route thru Kansas sitting on fence posts along the interstate........

The Video seemed to skip over the "taking him inside" part.
How'd he do that?
To: CGASMIA68
Yeah, a private citizen would have been expected to keep a respectful distance while the animal froze to death, but would be allowed to call for authorized professional governmental help. (No /S required here, although my comment is dripping with "S", cuz that's the way it is.)
And God forbid an eagle feather should fall off near you!

I live in OK and have quite a population of raptors right in my backyard. Red-tailed hawks are the most common and can be observed/heard nearly every day, especially when the leaves are off the trees. I travel to KS for Thanksgiving and make it a personal game to count hawks on fence posts and power poles during the trip from Tulsa to Wichita. The number is usually 20 or more in a drive of a little over 2 hours.
We also have quite a population of wintering bald eagles on the Arkansas River. One nesting pair have a huge nest that can be observed from a nearby road.
