Rattlesnake
Crotalus atrox
A new rattle segment is added each time they shed.
Mice, rats, rabbits — small warm snacks of the desert.
Eagle
Haliaeetus leucocephalus
The famous movie scream is often a red-tailed hawk. Eagles sound squeakier.
Fish first, plus water birds and carrion. They are not too proud for leftovers.
Who do YOU think wins?

A sky hammer with talons like grappling hooks.
