Check this out, a dutch company is training Eagles to take out unsafe drones: http://www.engadget.com/2016/02/01/eagles-vs-drones/
They are stating that the eagles would be used to remove drones that are flying over disaster sites (car accidents, fires, etc) and impeding airborune resuce crews from approching. The eagles would snach the drone out of the sky and bring it down to a safe area clearing the sky.

Yet another report in a long line of idiots who think they have the perfect solution to 'dangerous' drones. It is part of the feeding frenzy perpetuated by a bored media who have nothing better to report on.

Interesting, but completely stupid.

Can't believe those morons would consider using one of natures wonders  to try to down a drone., if the drone had Carbon Fiber props or worse  that bird will be damaged for life,
What a bunch of f'ing retards! Someone needs to fight this, it is just wrong....
How can you possibly put as beautiful an animal as this in harms way...
There are numerous other ways to down the drones, they really need to reconsider as this is just wrong...
Those idiots are worth less than the square of this earth that their worthless corpse occupy...
Shame on You!!!
The manufacturers of the Drones need to be accountable as auto  manufacturers have become, ie. your seat belt, air bag etc. are a  prerequisite nowadays, so maybe this is what the whole GeoFence crap is  all about, airports around the world will have a kill witch at their  beckon call...
Tower or incoming or outbound aircraft report an unidentified flying object...
Project Geo is induced for that particular zone...
Hopefully all unidentified objects fall from sky...
That simple...
Maybe Geo makes sense after all!
