Eagle's Claws are a ratchet tool
Veterinarian pulls out an individual Claw, and you can hear the ratchet sound.
Nature's locking grip to hold prey, whilst in flight.

Eagle's grip is 10 times stronger than a man's grip.
And with the ratchet locking mechanism, the claws clap closed, and the prey is hooked.

We have a bunch of eagles on our lake where I live. I have to watch when I let my little dog out. They will snatch him in a heartbeat! They sure are beautiful to watch

Lots of bald eagles across south Louisiana; along the rivers and in the swamp. They are fun to watch.
