Yet ANOTHER death at the National Zoo.

WASHINGTON (AP) -- Officials at the National Zoo suspect that a large cat got into a bald eagle's enclosure and killed the bird, perhaps already weakened by fierce storms and unable to fly.

A large cat? A bald eagle is much larger than a cat. Then again, it was in a zoo. Maybe one of the large cats there snuck out and killed the bird? *sarcasm*

The zoo is in Rock Creek Park and bobcats can be found in Maryland and Virginia.

Maybe they can catch it if it was a bobcat and put it back in the zoo exhibit since they put theirs to sleep due to an ingrown toenail that was misdiagnosed? *more sarcasm*

"Whenever you have an organization that cares for literally hundreds of animals you're going to have some deaths on occasion," Cecere said. "It's just sad that that happened, especially on the Fourth of July."

No, it's damn sad that your zoo spends thousands of dollars on pandas that we are renting, and the other animals tend to be forgotten. It is also quite sad that the zoo tends to just hire anyone to help out in the form of animal husbandry and not take into consideration that maybe they should all have some sort of veterinary or zoo technology backround. *but thats just my opinion
