Court Orders Fisherman to Apologise to Eagle


Quote - The Eco Enquirer


The judge agreed, finding the man guilty of a misdemeanor violation of the Act. The judge was lenient in sentencing, however, requiring only that the man apologize to the eagle. Mr. Williams expressed remorse, stating that the eagle would be welcome to help him fish anytime it wanted to. The eagle had no comment.

I've got a feeling this bird wasn't entirely innocent. I have visions of it flying off with the fish whilst it was still attached to Mr Williams' line. Mr Williams on the ground with the rod, bird in the air with the fish, and the fishing line stretched between them.
