We can all agree that eagles are some of the greatest creatures in nature, right? They're pretty much untouchable in the food chain, thanks to a combination of aerial grace and lethal predatory instincts that make them kings of the skies.

Also, real-life eagles have the good sense not to mess with humans, so how is it that in Far Cry 4 they have the temerity to plunge down on gun-wielding people like they were pygmy monkeys, and seemingly attempt to eat them? What's really frustrating about them is that unless you're looking at the skies constantly, you only know they're around when they do their trademark squawk, which in turn means that you have about half a second to react before you're prying its talons out of your cheeks.

They're persistent too, these freakin' eagles, and awkward to take out because of their relatively small size. So thanks for that, Far Cry 4. You've now ruined my appreciation of these great winged beasts for good.
