The bald eagle is regal but fearless, a bird you’re not inclined to argue with.\u00a0 For centuries, Americans have celebrated it as “majestic” and “noble”, yet savaged the living bird behind their national symbol as a malicious predator of livestock and, falsely, a snatcher of babies.\u00a0 Taking us from before the nation’s founding through inconceivable resurgences of this enduring all-America species, Jack E. Davis contrasts the age when native peoples lived beside it peacefully with that when others, whether through hunting bounties or DDT pesticides, twice pushed Haliaeetus Leucocephalus to the brink of extinction.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n
