Harpy Eagle

Harpia harpyja

One of the world's largest and most powerful raptors, the Harpy Eagle has massive talons the size of grizzly bear claws and legs as thick as a human wrist. Found in tropical lowland rainforests from Mexico to Argentina, it snatches sloths and monkeys from the canopy at high speed. Its broad gray facial disk and double crest give it an intense, almost regal expression.
