Crow Gets a Ride on Eagle’s Back

Listen to this article

In the early July 2015, a number of photographs probably viewing a crow landing on the top and riding on the back of an American eagle in flight, and these pictures were appeared for attraction on social media. These photographs are followed as a serial of photographs we have seen animal riding such as a chick riding on a cat, a dog is riding on a crocodile or a cat riding on a lion, and these pictures left many questions for viewers about their reality. But, some of the viewers rejected these kinds of photographs as mapping an unbelievable and impossible performance.

According to a biologist Kevin McGowan, she has specialized study in crow behavior said that they are definitely real photographs. It is such kinds of photographs like a dog is chasing a car and jumping on it, because dogs always need to catch the car, but they don’t know what they would do after catching the car. Crows have these kinds of behavior as we have seen in these photographs. Because normally crow follows a number of birds like eagle, vulture and kite etc.

But here is the thing that why the eagle didn’t react on the crow landing and it also didn’t pick the attention of eagle. The eagles are stressed nonstop by most of the birds. Crows are well known for their destructively harassing the other predators that are much bigger when they enter in their areas and normally these new comers react too much and go out without much bother.
