A bald eagle, who had "run away" during a performance at the Aquashow Audierne, Finistere, was finally found Friday in the Loiret, having traveled 600 kilometers in two weeks, said the animal park Saturday.
The bird of prey, which hardly passes unnoticed with its 2.20 meters wingspan, was "found by communal agents on the edge of a road in Loiret, in the town of Amilly, devouring a dead cat probably killed by cars, "said Pierre Poussard, manager of the animal park, confirming information from Ouest-France .

The bird was lost
The bird, whose majestic white head has become one of the main symbols of the United States, was rescued first by firefighters, then by a falconer and should return to Finistere Saturday evening. The park management had issued a notice to search for "Dana", his name.
The sea eagle, which does not exist in the wild in France, "was lost and could not return to the site," added Pierre Poussard, noting that "Dana" was in good health. "She had to feed on corpses," he added.
