There are thousands of birds in the world known as birds of prey, but the real can be called birds of prey is very rare, the most important thing about birds of prey is to highlight this fierce word, as the most ferocious existence in birds, not only to be fierce in personality, but also in combat effectiveness also need to be fierce to be able to call the birds of prey.
In nature, the golden eagle can be regarded as one of the more outstanding representatives of the raptor world, with a huge wingspan and strong predatory ability, and even becomes the existence of the raptor world that can hunt wolves, but the golden eagle is not the most powerful existence in the raptor world, I think the strongest existence in the raptor world should belong to the African crowned eagle from Africa.
<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" > the most powerful bird of prey in Africa</h1>
The African crown eagle is a bird that lives in Africa, and is called "crown eagle" because it has a handful of black feathers on the top of its head, but this feather does not look like a dull hair, but like a crown, that is, the hat worn by ancient officials, so it is called a crown eagle.
Its body length is about 89 to 91 cm, which is considered to be a large bird of prey in the raptor world. Weighing 4 to 5 kilograms and a wingspan of 1.8 to 2.5 meters, this wingspan enables the African crowned eagle to carry prey that weighs about 5 to 6 times its own weight.
This can be regarded as the Hercules of the Raptor World! After all, the skeleton of the bird is hollow, which can make it easier for the bird to fly, but it will also make the strength of the bird more weak, and the African crown eagle can grasp the existence of 5 to 6 times its own weight, which shows the strength of the African crown eagle.
As a bird of prey, it has to be said that the most ferocious point of the African crown eagle is its claws. The claws of the African coronal eagle are also four fingers, but unlike other eagles, the thumb of the crown eagle is extremely thick, and the nails on the thumb are also the longest and sharpest of the claws, which is about the same length as the index finger length of an adult man.
Such a structure may make mobility inconvenient, but it has a special role in hunting.
After being hunted by the African crown eagle, there will be various depressions or cracks on the skull of the african crown eagle, and these injuries are due to the claws of the African crown eagle.
The claws of the African crown eagle are very powerful, and the nails on the claws are also very sharp, just like the nine yin white bone claws in martial arts novels, when preying on baboons and other primates, they will use their claws to penetrate their skulls, which is very ferocious.
When dealing with cats and canines, the African crowned eagle will jump from a high place, use gravity acceleration to increase its strength, and then plunge its claws deep into the body of the prey to strike a fatal blow, if the prey dodges the attack, the African coronal eagle will use a more brutal way to hunt, using long claws, from the eyes of the prey to the brain, a fatal blow is very cruel, fierce.
<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" which is stronger > gold eagle or African crown eagle? </h1>
Who is more powerful than the golden eagle we know? As birds of prey, in addition to appreciating their heroism and strength, many people also train these birds of prey to become falcons.
The golden eagle and the African crown eagle are almost the same size in size, the body length of the golden eagle is 76-102 cm, and the body length of the African crown eagle is 89 to 91 cm, which is not much different, the two large birds of prey are half a person's height, and the wingspan can also be stretched up to more than 2 meters.
They also have cases of killing powerful predators, the golden eagle can kill wolves, and the African crowned eagle can kill cheetahs, that is, leopards that run as fast as sports cars.
In the way of hunting, the golden eagle will stare closely at the prey, knowing that the prey shows its weakness, and the golden eagle will immediately attack, defeat the enemy with one blow or firmly grasp the prey and take it into the air and drop it. The African crowned eagle is more direct, and once the prey is found, it immediately attacks and uses its claws to give the prey a fatal blow.
There is a saying that this is not the case, with force to break the coincidence, in the face of absolute strength all the wisdom is invalid. The African crowned eagle also has a lot of experience in preying on birds, and the African crown eagle is also a very powerful presence in the technique of air combat, and the grip of the African crown eagle is very strong, and it is also stronger than the golden eagle in strength.
I think that if the golden eagle encounters the African crown eagle, the golden eagle may wait for the opportunity, and the African crown eagle will directly attack, hit the golden eagle by surprise, and finally win the duel.
< h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" > concluding remarks</h1>
The current living conditions of African crowned eagles are not good, due to the openness of human beings, their habitat is slowly decreasing, and their number is also slowly decreasing. The African crowned eagle takes about two years to breed a cub, 3 to 4 years old sexually mature, lifespan of up to 12 to 15 years, although it is raised by the female and the male, the rate of reproduction is also very slow.
Birds should live in nature, not become falcons, and only survival in nature is the most correct choice for them.
