Rowdy Yayhoot asked in Environment · 1 decade ago

Do you think that we are masters of our own demise?

This is an article is on Yahoo new right now.

An Eagle in Alaska died today. It died because it was flying to low trying to carry its next meal. The meal was a Deers head, and because of the weight the Eagle was not able to climb fast enough to clear power lines, so the Eagle hit the power lines and was electrocuted.

The Eagle found the Deers head in a landfill. So here is what I'm getting at. Don't you think It is time to shift gears?

Here we had a destroyed Deer whos head was in a landfil, made by people from waste made by people. Then an Eagles sees it as food and in the attempt to survive, it was killed by something that people needed to supply them with electricity.

Not much respect for the environment and bad Philosophy for life in general.

What do you think? Are we doomed or are we going to make it?

Update:

JUNEAU, Alaska - About 10,000 Juneau residents briefly lost power after a bald eagle lugging a deer head crashed into transmission lines.

"You have to live in Alaska to have this kind of outage scenario," said Gayle Wood, an Alaska Electric Light & Power spokeswoman. "This is the story of the overly ambitious eagle who evidently found a deer head in the landfill."

The bird, weighed down by the deer head, apparently failed to clear the transmission lines, she said. A repair crew found the eagle dead, the deer head nearby.

The power was out for less than 45 minutes Sunday.
