The golden eagle is carnivorous and feeds on rabbits, marmots, squirrels and birds as well as large mammals such as foxes, cats, goats, young ibex and young deer. The golden eagle is a large diurnal raptor of the accipitridae family. It is dark brown in color with light brown to golden yellow plumage on the top of the head and on the nape. This is why it is also called "the golden eagle".
He has dark brown eyes and eight times keener eyesight than humans. Its beak is hooked and measures between 4 and 6.5 cm. The tip of the bill is black. Its legs are yellow and covered with feathers up to the fingers. The golden eagle lives in Europe, North Africa, North America and Asia. He lives in mountainous regions with rocky plateaus. The eagle is a great predator thanks to its eyesight, agility, speed, and powerful talons.
