Camera-equipped drones are popular these days and just about everyone has a video online showing their drone in flight. There are also of people punching, shooting or throwing objects at these quad-copters when they feel like their privacy is being invaded. In Australia, an eagle attacked a drone in the sky without warning, causing the drone to crash to the ground.
According to commenters in the video’s description, the wedge-tailed eagle felt threatened by the drone flying in its territory.
The video was uploaded by drone enthusiast Adam Lancaster and posted to his YouTube channel, Melbourne Ariel Video.
According to Adam, the Eagle was fine and he says he won’t be flying his drone in that area anymore. Smart move, Adam.
