Bald eagles, bagged and ready for processing

Eagles ready to be sent out to fill orders hang in one of two freezers at the U.S. Eagle Repository in Commerce City, Colo. The repository receives all eagles that have died in the United States and prepares them to go to Native Americans for their religious ceremonies. Joanna B. Pinneo / For The Washington Post
Details on what happens to dead bald eagles are available in the Washington Post.

  1. What a fascinating story. I can't wait to share this with my family, especially my husband and son. Your blog sub-title says it all. I would never have known this if not for your blog. Thanks.
