Golden Eagle
Eagles are masters of the sky! With their incredible eyesight, which is about 5 times stronger than that of humans, they can spot prey from kilometers away. Their massive wingspan and powerful talons make them one of the most effective hunters in the animal kingdom.
Eagles can sometimes be spotted soaring above the mangrove areas in Kota Belud. These majestic birds hunt fish and small mammals, contributing to the ecological health of the area. Their presence in the skies over Sabah is a testament to the rich biodiversity that these habitats support.
Eagles are large birds of prey known for their powerful build and remarkable vision. They belong to the Accipitridae family and can be found across a wide range of habitats, including mountains and wetlands. Eagles are apex predators, feeding on fish, birds, and small mammals.
