They look crap but presumably offer some protection for the chicks, though not from each other (see the murderous activities within the nests in my previous post ). Tiphys died either of a snakebite or of a mysterious illness but he was not killed by either a tiger or a rhinoceros. Lucky him, right? Though he ended up dead anyway.

The only wildcat I found was illegally killed by hunters during closed season. Photographed within Beljarica: five White-tailed Eagles by Snezana Panjkovic. Two hundred metres further on, two young White-tailed Eagles were soaring. Yet, the primary job of Beljarica is not to support eagles and otters, but to control the floods.

The Crested Serpent Eagle is another species bound to suffer from a naming error in perpetuity. The birds forage in flocks and members are believed to stay on nearby if one is killed, according to the Lothas, they will wait to be killed and the hunter would soon see people around him die in quick succession one after another.”

And managing means killing them, breeding them, and otherwise fiddling with their populations. This is irksome, as the premise is that we need to save the animals (and which ones is an interesting discussion) because we will suffer if they are gone. This is all very unveganly, but I went for it nevertheless.

I wonder what Americans would think if, in a Wikipedia entry, a Bald Eagle would be illustrated using a photo taken at an Albanian zoo. We Germans of course chose a much more aggressive national bird to match our (hopefully only past) militaristic instincts: the white-tailed eagle. But I am grumbling a little bit about it.
