They'll eat pretty much any small vertebrate in the trees - lizards, frogs, birds and bats. Paradise Tree snakes are primarily lizard eaters.

Well, here in Argentina they are eaten by birds of prey (eagles and such) and large carnivores such as cougars. \nOf course, when speaking of "natural enemies" we all tend to think of predators. But we all have other, smaller natural enemies: parasites (ticks, lice, worms) and diseases (rabies, hantavirus, etc).

For a start, your question in proper English would be, 'How does a Harpy Eagle care for its young? What are Harpy Eagle's predators and how do they protect themselves against them?\n\nYou should find your answers on one of these websites.

It is safer.\nWhen attacked they scatter and this confuses the predator.\nIt is the same principle for most prey - sparrows, antelope, rabbits, starlings, etc.\nI have watched a hawk trying to take a pigeon from a group - it does not often succeed.

Bald Eagles are thought to have the best eyesight of any animal, having up to eight times the resolving power of the human eye. The retina has two focusing foveae (human eyes have only one) which allows them to use both eyes together (binocular vision like humans) for telescopic viewing, or each eye independently (monocular vision) for up close viewing. They see in color.

I've heard of attacks by mockingbirds and bluejays and have seen both of these birds swoop on other potential predators such as cats. They only do it when they feel their nest (with eggs or nestlings) is threatened. The solution is just to stay away from the nest.

Well, a grouse is a prey animal. If there was a decline in the population of grouse, then the animals that usually prey on the grouse - coyotes, owls, etc - would probably start eating other prey animals, like the pheasants and squirrels.

If you consider evolution, any animal that is able to protect itself will. They would have only adapted the ability to fight off enemies or hide from them if it was something that they used and it saved their lives. The only "passive" animals out there are the ones who don't have the ability to defend themselves. So to answer your question, no, there are no animals who naturally choose to not protect themselves when they are capable. Only on an individual basis could this happen. There are no known species or populations that do that.\n\nThe sloth is endangered because we cut down its trees that keep it safe. Frogs don't let animals eat them, they try to run away. The closest thing to what you are describing that I can think of would be a mother duck pretending to be injured to lure the predator away from the chicks. Of course, when she gets it away from the chicks, she too flies away.

No, the eagle doesn't want it back,  and it isn't against the law to keep it, but keep in mind the bird itself could be an ill eagle:)\nSorry..couldn't resist!

Raptors (diurnal birds of prey) have a region of their retina that provides a higher level of detail, virtually a zoom-in section.  They use this in spotting terrestrial prey from aloft.

Predatory animals...  Birds, and Owls that might eat them.\n\nAvailability of mate.... Without a mate there would be no reason to be in the area/ they wouldn't be producing a population to sustain life in that area.

That depends on what exactly you mean.\n\nWithin Antarctic waters the top predator without a doubt is the killer whale.\n\nOn land the top predator is the skua, a kind of large and very aggressive seagull.\n\nPenguins are in no way a top predator. In the sea they regularly fall prey to leopard seals and killer whales, and while on land they are not in any way predatory.

Don't birds eat them?

EVERY  socieity which has had contact with eagles has deveioed a mythology and /or mysticism about them. In the ancient Aztec tradition, the chief god told the people to settle at a place where they find an eagle perched on a cactus eating a snake. This place is now Mexico City.\n\nThe eagle was sacred to Zeus, who often changed into the form of an eagle to help himself control thunder and lightning. The Sumerians woushiped an eagle god, and the Hittities used a double headed eagle as a symbleolic emblem so athey would never be surprised. \n\nThe eagle has also been associated woth Jupiter, and it was a stromg emblem for the Roman Empire. In Egyptian hieroglyphics, the eagle is a symbol for the vowl "A"; and also a symbol for the soul, the spirit, and the warmth of life. \n\nIn early Christian mysticism, the eagle was a symbol of resurrection.\n\nThe Thunderbird, to the Native Americans, is most often depicted in the for of an eagle. This was the great spirit who controlled lightning and rain,punishment and reward. To th Pueblo Indians the eagle was a bird of the sky with the ability to spiral upward unitil it passed through a hole in the sky to the home of the sun. It was associated with all the energies of the sun - physisical and spiritual. The Pueblo Indians honored six directions - North, South, East West, Zenith (above), and nadir (below). The eagle was the symbol of the zenith because of its ability to soar to great heights. From these heights it could survey all four directions. They became symbols of greater sight and perception.\n\nTo the Hopis, the golden and the bald eagles were the greatest of all the birds of the sky, but these are the only two eagles that live upon our continent. Some groups of Hopis also included the red - tailed hawk as an eagle, referring to it as the red Eagle.\n\nI hope this was of some help to you

I would compare myself to an American Eagle, that flys high in the sky with a keen sense of eyesight. I believe I have a great sense for people and their predictability. Eagles also have great talons to hold tight to their prey; just like my heart to hold and protect my close friends.

Mamals (teradactyles) used to fly with leatherlike wings so it would seem that humans could also.  However human arm and chest muscles are not very suitable for flight.  As in the term pigeon or chicken breasted, birds have muscular chests that fascilitate a powerful downward pull on the wings.  Coonsider the shape of a turkey breast and the thick breastmeat there.  Still, the only way a turkey can soar with the eagles, is in their talons.  We would tire too easily, even with very light fake wings.
