Richard Tustin, Martial Eagle (Wildlife and Animal 2019)

Africa's largest eagle with a wingspan of 2m. Monitor lizards are a main source of food however this eagle bit of more than he could chew - he could not kill it and could not take off due to its sheer size. Over an hour and he was still unsuccessful.
