I almost dropped down when I looked into the eyes of the skull as I saw the marks... they were perfect examples of eagle damage. Thousands of scientists, including myself, had overlooked this critical damage.

These critical clues were puncture marks in the base of the eye sockets of primates, made when the eagles ripped the eyes out of the dead monkeys with their sharp talons and beaks. It was a marker that others hadn't noted before, that linked eagles definitively to the kill.

It just shows that you can never stop looking. Just because something has been studied for years doesn't mean that it can't still tell us new things.

These birds would have been after the most vulnerable members of the group.

Birds used to eat us and in doing so they shaped our behavior.

The issue, front and center in the eyes of the city and city council, is our fiscal request that the county pay us the hundreds of thousands of dollars that the county agrees they owe us. Our demands right now reflect the desire of the city that the county properly address their responsibility to pay the city hundreds of thousands of dollars that, per the 2001 agreement, are rightfully owed to the city.
