I don't think the kid would have been ok after a golden eagle had sunk its talons into his shoulders - have you seen the gloves falconers use to protect themselves?

I did wonder - but I was holding me wheest until it became clearer. It's part of our nature to want to dramatise nature and make things more scary and exciting than they really are. Thus over the years we have cleared the big birds of prey (baby and lamb stealers) from our skies. Boggers in Ireland are currently poisoning and shooting these birds because of their supposed danger - videos like this will surely feed into their fears and impulses.
