"Bald eagles were removed from the US' list of endangered and threatened species in 2007 but remain protected under the Bald and Golden Eagle Protection Act, the Migratory Bird Treaty Act and the Lacey Act. Under the MBTA , anyone harming one of the regal birds could face up to two years in prison and a $250,000 fine."

Looks like the feds are protecting the illegals over bald eagles.

Imagine if one of us were caught killing a bald eagle...

I’m sure there’s many examples, but back about ten years ago I remember a case in Alabama where a guy took down a tree containing an eagle’s nest while clearing some land. He spent a few years in fed prison. I think, by law, even collecting eagle feathers is protected.

Charge them, convict them, send them to jail for two years, then deport them. Good riddance.

I remember a lady that used to add bird feathers to art works she produced and sold. There was An eagle nested in a tree near her property. She collected feathers from under the nest. At an art exhibit she was presenting paintings in she was arrested and fined $25,000 for possessing the eagle feathers and her art work was seized. Illegal immigrants kill an bald eagle and nothing.
