    In D&D, there's a kind of monster eagle called a "Roc", which captures an elephant and takes off with one.
    In this case, life in Arabia seems to reflect that.

    Guess they didn't catch the kill on film then. And that 360° spin the eagle did to evade the Kestrel was the tits! 👌

    To take this shot! It almost takes a week & perfect timing! It’s easy to dislike & write crappy comment to get likes! Osme footage.
