Kazakhs have used eagles to hunt for thousands of years, and to this day the golden eagle plays an important part in their lives. The hunters find eagle nests by searching for the tell-tale white droppings on the rocks far below them. They take only females from the nest, because they tend to grow bigger than males, weighing up to seven kilos with a wingspan of two metres or more when fully grown. The intensive training starts right away, ensuring that an intense connection develops between the eagle and its new owner. The eagles are taught to hunt rabbits, foxes and even wolves. In the past it was almost exclusively men who became eagle hunters, but nowadays women and children as young as 13 are taking up the tradition.
