    Eagle gets artificial beak...

    Bald eagle fitted with artificial beak - Yahoo! News Photos

    Is it just me, or does that thing look like it was just hot glued on?

    Nope, not just you. They didn't even do a good job of gluing it either.

    Re: Eagle gets artificial beak...

    I wonder if the eagle will file a multi-million dollar lawsuit against the plastic surgeon for not attaching the beak in an aesthetic manner???

    Or maybe the eagle is just happy to have his beak back...

    Time until an animal rights group files a suit on behalf of the eagle?

    Thankfully we have smart people in this country dedicating themselves to causes like fixing an eagle's beak.

    Re: Eagle gets artificial beak...

    LOL--should probably read the little blurb first:

    A final beak made of tougher material will be created and attached later.

    The eagle should have a good case:

    1. Exposure to toxic glue
    2. Emotional distress due to disfigurement
    3. Made to look distressing similar to Julia Roberts
