The golden eagle who couldn't hunt

A banded golden eagle 509-50217 puzzled observers by not hunting. Tracked from Montezuma National Wildlife Refuge in New York to Pisgah National Forest in North Carolina and Brigantine Refuge in New Jersey, it was cared for by Dr. Walter Spofford and later Howard Brown before being housed at Patuxent Wildlife Research Center in Maryland. The bird, weighing about five to seven pounds, showed little fear of people and was fed steak while under protection. Scientists at Patuxent ponder why the eagle does not hunt like its wild counterparts.
