Adult golden eagle feeds on red fox in region of Flatanger in north-western Norway

An adult golden eagle feeds on a red fox in a forest in the region of Flatanger in north-western Norway, about 200 kilometers (125 miles) north of the town of Trondheim January 30, 2012. To help this globally endangered species over the hard winter, with often temperatures dropping below minus 15 degrees centigrade (5 degrees Farenheit) nature conservationists occasionally feed the birds with foxes shot during the hunting season. The European population of golden eagles has its stronghold in Norway and Sweden with about 1500 breeding pairs. Picture taken January 30.
