Animals We Had No Idea Were Actually Shockingly Massive

The Majestic Bald Eagle

The bald eagle is the symbol of the United States. These endangered birds are majestic, and since they are rarely seen, people don't realize how large they really are up close. They have a wingspan between six and seven feet, and their talons are two inches long.

This woman is trying to hold it back, but the bird says, "No, I am the symbol of freedom. Let me spread my wings and soar into the sky like the beautiful bird I deserve to be." They always look so angry, we wonder what goes through their minds.
