Bald Eagle , however, only about a two month turnaround.

The repository function is the handle of the Dead eagle, but there are actually live-eagles lives just outside The Building in Colorado

For Native Americans, The Eagle is a revered creature.

The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service is currently considering the responses to a Robert Soto, a pastor of McAllen Grace Brethren Church in Texas, and The Becket Fund for Religious Liberty.
