	Crowned eagle sought in Southern Cape
		Forests and the shy crowned eagle are synonymous.
		The survival of the crowned eagle depends on the availability of its forest habitat, which has shrunk severely in the past two centuries as a result of deforestation, the timber industry, and over-utilization.
		It seems, however, that crowned eagles are quite picky when it comes to choosing where they want to build their bulky stick nests.

	CROWNED EAGLE KILLED
		The eagle had multiple little holes in the left side of the body and the one wing was badly broken.
		Our immediate concern was that the eagle had suffered severe trauma and shock and it was essential to stabilize it if it had to have any chance of surviving this cowardly attack on its life.
		The subsequent post mortem on the eagle confirmed Dr. Scheeper’s fears, but fortunately the bullet could be retrieved from the shoulder joint and can now be use for forensic testing to prove from which rifle the shot was fired that led to the destruction of this beautiful eagle.

	Crowned Eagles aka Crowned Hawk-Eagles
		The Crowned Eagle (Stephanoaetus coronatus), more precisely known as the Crowned Hawk-eagle, is a very large, powerful, crested bird of prey (80-90 cm approx) found in tropical Africa south of the Sahara; in Southern Africa a common resident in suitable habitat in the eastern areas.
		The Crowned Eagle inhabits dense indigenous and riverine forests (sometimes plantations), heavily wooded hillsides, dense woodland and rocky outcrops throughout its range, at an altitude of up to 11,000 ft. Owing to lack of suitable habitat (through deforestation and industrialisation), the eagle's range is discontinuous.
		Like the slightly larger Martial Eagle, the Crowned has throughout modern history been the target of gun-wielding farmers, who hold that the bird is a threat to their livestock.

	Eagle - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Eagles are large birds of prey, which are found mainly in the Old World, with only two species (Bald Eagle and Golden Eagle) in North America, a few in South America and two, (White-bellied Sea Eagle and Wedge-tailed Eagle), in Australia.
		The eagle is also part of the coat of arms of Romania and the coat of arms and flag of Moldova.
		Although the Golden Eagle is found in North America, U.S. references to an unspecified "eagle" are often to the Bald Eagle; this point was not realized by a USA coin die engraver, who, told to depict "an eagle", depicted a Golden Eagle; this error is the cause of the expression "illegal eagle".
