HARPY-EAGLE 



"Clean and dainty and proud as a Spanish Don." 

 It is an arboreal and cliff-loving bird, feeding chiefly on 

 mammals, very fierce and strong. The under parts are mostly 

 white, with a greyish zone on the chest. The upper parts are 

 blackish-grey. The harpy occurs from Mexico to Paraguay 

 and Bolivia.

It does much harm in destroying sheep. It is famous for its persistent "death-feigning," for an 

 individual has been known to allow part of its skin to be removed, in the belief that it was dead, before 

 betraying its vitality.
