The bald eagle is now officially the national bird of the US, after President Joe Biden signed a law on Christmas Eve bestowing the honour upon the white-headed and yellow-beaked bird of prey.
The bald eagle is emblematic of America ... but was also known to prey on livestock, according to the Fish and Wildlife Service — first declined due to habitat and prey loss.
The young bald eagle, which has a 6ft wingspan, has been menacing visitors to Hampton Beach, New Hampshire, since Friday. Kayla, of Albany, New York, is its fourth, and youngest, victim.
