It's clear to us now that eagles in the Missoula area have a HUGE appetite. Accidentally dropping a few berries and perhaps a field mouse in mid-air is one thing, but a full sized baby fawn? Well, that's just gluttonous.

Check out this (NSFW) video from KPAX of a bald eagle that took down power lines in East Missoula after losing it's grip on a small deer. The power has since been restored and I'm certain our frustrated American mascot is off to find her next, and hopefully smaller prey.

Words of wisdom to the children of Montana: It might not be a bad idea to toss some 25 pound weights in your backpacks to ensure you don't become her next high flying lunch. Just sayin'.
