Monkey Eating Eagle of the Philippines

file from:

Philippine Eagle Sanctuary Davao. ...went to Mindanao 2 years ago, unexpectedly visited the Sanctuary...took some pictures with my ol' reliable point and shoot 5700. also known as the Philippine eagle. "The Philippine Eagle (Pithecophaga jefferyi) is a giant forest raptor endemic to the Philippines. It is considered one of the largest and most powerful eagles in the world. Unfortunately, it is also one of the world's rarest and certainly among its most critical endangered vertebrate species. The eagle is known to be geographically restricted to the islands of Luzon, Samar, Leyte and Mindanao. Philippine eagles are monogamous and they bond for life. But contrary to claims that they opt to remain unpaired in the death of their mate, evidences from natural pairing techniques and data from all other raptors indicate that they take in new mates as replacement. Females reach sexual maturity at around five years and males, at seven." source:Philippineeagle.org.
