Golden eagles strong claws

The Golden eagles most deadly weapon is not the beak but it´s claws, which it forces down into it’s prey with the help of tendons in it’s claws. The Golden eagle possesses an almost unbelievable strength compared to its size. I know that skilled Golden eagles gets a hold over the head to avoid getting bitten and as we can see that´s what´s happening in this picture. The eagle takes no risks with a traffic killed badger.
