I fell into a strange YouTube wormhole on my lunch break and ended up watching this video of people in Kazakhstan who use eagles to help them hunt? (Warning: contains footage of sad fox death at the hands talons of an eagle) (But also lots of overly dramatic and weirdly hilarious man-eagle relationship footage?).
Anyway, there is a drawn out sequence where the eagle is chasing the fox and I kept thinking the dangly things were his legs, like somehow this whole time eagles have had long, awkward Kermit the Frog legs and I never knew? And the idea of stately eagles flying around with dangly spaghetti legs really SLAYED me. 
~just a girl, sitting at her desk eating leftovers out of a tupperware container, cry-laughing at eagles with spaghetti legs~
But then I realized it was just rope from whatever outfit the Kazakhstani people made the eagles wear. Talk about a let down.
