MNN has compiled a list of five…
Cats have two natural enemies: dogs and birds. Dogs chase cats, and cats hunt birds. Twas ever thus. That's just science. But what happens when that bird isn't a tiny, possibly delicious songbird flitting about the trees in your yard, but a rather large bird of pray, like an eagle? Does the hunter become the hunted? Surprisingly no. It turns out there is honor about hunters. At least in this instance. ...
