Bald Eagle and Fox Struggling Over Rabbit in Midair, San Juan Island National Historical Park, Washington
A red fox (Vulpes vulpes) kit briefly rides on the back of a bald eagle (Haliaeetus leucocephalus) after the bird stole the rabbit it caught. When the bald eagle grabbed the rabbit, it inadvertently also caught the fox, lifting both more than 20 feet into the air. The fox swung back and forth trying to take the rabbit back. The bald eagle released the fox and flew off with the rabbit ending the 8-second midair struggle.
