The horrifying video shows one of the most incredible eagle attacks caught on camera.
In it, the monumental eagle swoops down on his prey from high up on a rock face.
But he has chosen not one but two victims – in the form of bulky mountain goats.
At first it seems to be going well for the enormous eagle.
The predator sinks its talons into the goat’s skin, clinging onto the mammal as if its life depended on it.
Helplessly, the animal attempts to scurry away, kicking itself into the air to get rid of the eagle.
It even makes a tragic run for it down the sheer rock face, with the second goat in tow – unable to stop the savage attack.
The enormous bird of prey manages to keep its deadly grip in the goats back for quite some time as it desperately thrashes around.
But it seems the eagle has bitten off more than it can chew and despite its powerful wingspan, the two goats are just too big a match for the bird.
The ravenous beast concedes defeat and is forced to let his dinner run away.
After taking quite a beating on the jagged rocks, the eagle is left shaking and forced to hunt for smaller prey.
More than 2.5million people have seen the clip since it was uploaded to YouTube, with users commenting on the shocking brutality of the scene.
“That eagle got f***** up by that goat, dragging him through the rocks. That eagle ain’t flying anytime soon,” said one viewer.
Another wrote: “I reckon that eagle’s claws were stuck into the hide of that goat and he couldn’t release them.
“He could have been killed or injured himself.”
it’s not the first time an eagle has shown its brute strength.
A traumatic clip that emerged last year showed a bird throwing an innocent goat off the edge of a cliff for no apparent reason.
