These birds are the largest eagles on earth with talons the size of grizzly bear claws. They prey on more than 100 different species and have no natural predators of their own. Peter visits raptor sanctuaries in Florida that are dedicated to the recovery of many birds of prey - especially harpy eagles. Following in the footsteps of Wild Kingdom's original host Jim Fowler, Peter explores the unique and fascinating world of harpies and meets the conservationists working to preserve the species and habitats. Meanwhile, Dr. Rae travels to the biodiverse country of Panama, the ancestral home of harpy eagles to learn the cultural significance of this amazing raptor, which is the country's national bird.
