Australian Eagle Steals Wildlife Camera, Takes Selfies, Wins Our Hearts

Hey, Australia. You know that wildlife camera you put out by the Kimberly Margaret River? Yeah. That belongs to the eagles now. Watch as the camera gets carted off by a sea eagle. It seems even eagles can’t resisted taking pics of the wing when they’re flying, or snapping selfies when it gets home. We love you, eagle.
