Rob The Ranger Wildlife Videos's video: Martial Eagle With Guinea Fowl Meal Maasai Mara Safari Zebra Plains

Watching a martial eagle feed on a guinea fowl in the branches of a large tree during a safari in the Maasai Mara from Zebra Plains. The martial eagle (Polemaetus bellicosus) is a large eagle native to sub-Saharan Africa. It is the only member of the genus Polemaetus. A species of the booted eagle subfamily (Aquillinae), it has feathering over its tarsus. One of the largest and most powerful species of booted eagle, it is a fairly opportunistic predator that varies its prey selection between mammals, birds and reptiles. Its hunting technique is unique as it is one of few eagle species known to hunt primarily from a high soar, by stooping on its quarry. An inhabitant of wooded belts of otherwise open savanna, this species has shown a precipitous decline in the last few centuries due to a variety of factors. The martial eagle is one of the most persecuted bird species in the world. Due to its habit of taking livestock and regionally valuable game, local farmers and game wardens frequently seek to eliminate martial eagles, although the effect of eagles on this prey is almost certainly considerably exaggerated. Currently, the martial eagle is classified with the status of Vulnerable to extinction by the IUCN Filmed In The Maasai Mara National Reserve, Kenya Special thanks to Zebra Plains Mara Camp Book A Maasai Mara Safari at Zebra Plains Mara Camp: Call: +254790789122 WhatsApp: +254790789122 Email: reservations@zebraplainsmara.com Website: www.zebraplainscollection.com Download our brochures to learn more about the camps: www.zebraplainscollection.com/brochures Filmed in 4K UHD resolution Buy My Current Equipment: Nikon Coolpix P1000 - https://go.magik.ly/ml/t6pg/ Joby GorillaPod 5K - https://go.magik.ly/ml/1tcmw/ RODE VideoMicro Microphone - https://go.magik.ly/ml/1tcn6/ Sony XPERIA 1 IV (For Livestreams) - https://go.magik.ly/ml/1tcn9/ Lowepro Pro Trekker BP 450 AW II Backpack - https://go.magik.ly/ml/1tcnt/ *Above affiliate links may earn me a commission Subscribe: https://bit.ly/30a0IRM | Merch: http://teespring.com/stores/robtheranger Watch the newest videos: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLLLkJbMHt1booI-NVZ7lZxheEp8UMFRYE Buy a Book, help save rhinos: https://s71.co/3Mb0FvF Buy My Current Equipment: Nikon Coolpix P1000 - https://go.magik.ly/ml/t6pg/ or https://s71.co/3MIiXGh Joby GorillaPod 5K - https://go.magik.ly/ml/1tcmw/ Joby GorillaPod 5K VideoPro - https://s71.co/3pKS4s0 Joby GripTight PRO Video GorillaPod Stand For Phone - https://s71.co/434Epu8 RODE VideoMicro Microphone - https://go.magik.ly/ml/1tcn6/ or https://s71.co/454Ikcj Sony XPERIA 1 IV (For Livestreams) - https://go.magik.ly/ml/1tcn9/ or https://s71.co/3WabFOo Lowepro Pro Trekker BP 450 AW II Backpack - https://go.magik.ly/ml/1tcnt/ SanDisk 128GB Extreme PRO SDXC UHS-I Memory Card - https://go.magik.ly/ml/1tjfp/ or https://s71.co/3W98dDC *Above affiliate links may earn me a commission Follow Rob The Ranger: TWITTER: http://goo.gl/U8IQGf INSTAGRAM: https://instagram.com/robtheranger BLOG: http://goo.gl/yJJ3pT FACEBOOK: http://goo.gl/M8pnJh OFFICIAL bilibili: https://space.bilibili.com/1427022354 STEEMIT: https://steemit.com/@robtheranger TUMBLR: http://goo.gl/qF6sNS TIKTOK: www.tiktok.com/@robtheranger Watch more videos!

Nature Documentaries are often highly edited to tell a story, wildlife safaris are not, and the idea here is to show the wildlife sightings the way they were seen. Safari tours in Africa are generally suitable for all ages and this channel can be considered an educational channel about incredible nature, some scenes in the nature videos may be more graphic than people are used to but this is the reality of nature and is what you would see if you were present on such a safari in person. Safaris in Kenya, South Africa, or any other African country are an unrivalled experience for anyone with a passion for nature, wildlife photography, and travel. Hopefully the animal videos on this channel can provide a glimpse into what the nature experience is like and encourage more people to take a wildlife safari one day.
