Woodward's eagle


Woodward's eagle is an extinct species of eagle that lived in North America and the Caribbean during the Late Pleistocene. It is one of the largest birds of prey ever found, with an estimated total length, as quite as large as the Harpy eagle. Haast's eagle reached bigger lengths but appears to have been both somewhat more robust than Woodward's, as Haast's was a forest-dwelling species. Woodward's eagle appears to have hunted in open habitats, taking primarily small mammals and reptiles.
