Greb147 6,809 Posted April 10, 2021 Report Share Posted April 10, 2021 I originally put this on the general section. I was watching a brilliant video Golden Eagles hunting Hares yesterday and it got me wanting to ask a few questions. It looks great sport no doubt, the strike rates are quite low which got me thinking. Is this about the same rate as wild eagles or much lower, I should imagine wild eagles are much better hunters and have a higher strike rate. And now on to the eagles themselves, the golden eagle is the most widespread of large wild eagles, with there being a big variation in size, is there a preferred strain from a region that is deemed as the best hunter? To me some of those eagles looked a bit big and cumbersome for the task, are the smaller goldies better for hare? I know males are much smaller, how do they compare to the females for hunting.
