Bald eagles can live as long as
40 years
When Beauty was nervous what did she do
Flapped her wings
An eagles sharp claws are called
Talons
Beauty lived in
Alaska
Without a beak Beauty could not
Hunt, eat or drink
What does it mean to preen
To clean and smooth their feathers
How long did it take to perfect the final beak
1 1/2 years
What was Nate's job title
Engineer
What did Nate have to do to make the artificial beak fit better
He used a drill to carve small areas
How did they keep the metal post in place
With a screw
Who were the other experts who helped Beauty
A vet and a dentist
What did Jane send to Nate
Pictures and a plaster mold of the remaining beak
Engineers use these to build things
Math and Science
What are raptors
Birds that hunt animals for food
What was Nate's reward for working so hard
Being able to see Beauty preen herself and drink water
Why is a raptors beak hooked
For pulling apart it's prey and eating
