Yeah but the bald eagle in particular has a proclivity towards cowardice and scavenging, despite its size. Red tailed hawk or turkey is a much more admirable bird
Turkeys are super cool, but it’s still a bit silly to apply human values to wild animals. Pretty much all animals are wired to survive while expending the least amount of energy and reducing risk to themselves. Stealing catches from other animals is quite common across species because it’s easier and safer. The reality is that it’s brutal out there. I don’t have diminished admiration for a bear because it found some food in a trash can instead of catching fish from a stream.
The Roman Empire, which lasted about 1000 years, looking at the American Empire collapsing after 250 years:
I can assure you the “roman” empire is still alive and kicking my friend
TIL that empire = eagle logo
Empires = chicken logo
Kingdoms = cat logo
Sys admins = dog logo
The eagle steals prey from other creatures, like the fake predator it is.
Raptors are awesome and they absolutely hunt and kill other animals. You don’t have to make up fake animal facts to dunk on the US.
