00:00Cuando hablamos de los raptores, no puedes dejar el mayor grupo de ellos, los eagles.
00:06Y sobre todo, mi favorita es el Golden Eagle, como Tonka.
00:12Con la escala de 6 a 15 lbs y con la espalda de 6 a 7.5 feet wide,
00:18ellos son truly un periódico aeropredador.
00:21Soaring over prairies, mountains, deserts, and even tundra habitaciones,
00:26the Golden Eagle is one of the most well-distributed eagles on our planet.
00:30They have telescopic vision that can spot prey from incredible distances.
00:35Check it out!
00:36Their eyes take up a large space in their skull,
00:38and they have a set of clear islands called nictitating membranes,
00:42sort of like special flight goggles, only much cooler.
00:46These clear islands help protect the eyes, keeping it moist,
00:49and allowing Tonka to see when hunting.
00:51An eagle like Tonka can travel for miles just to find a bite to eat,
00:57but with that broad, rounded wingspan, Golden Eagles make it look easy.
01:02Soaring birds take advantage of thermals.
01:05When the sun warms the earth, warm air rises from the surface,
01:09and it is that column of rising air that they can use to travel
01:12for great distances in search of prey.
01:15Although, those beautiful wings are not just energy savers,
01:17they also allow Tonka to dive at speeds at close to 200 miles per hour.
01:23And check out those talons!
01:25Those strong, powerful feet enable Tonka to easily subdue her prey,
01:29which can vary depending on the habitat,
01:32making the Golden Eagle a highly adaptable raptor.
01:36As an animal ambassador here at the San Diego Zoo Safari Park,
01:40Tonka has become a wonderful representative for her wild brothers and sisters.
01:43Utilizing positive reinforcement techniques,
01:46Tonka helps both educate and inspire our guests
01:49through the conservation of wildlife globally,
01:51but also at a local level.
01:54Make sure you make a special visit to our beautiful San Diego Zoo Safari Park
01:57and see Tonka in all of her majesty.
02:00Now it's easy to see why this powerful and elegant aerial hunter
02:03has earned her spot as top predator of the skies.
02:06Thank you intellectual guys.
