After many very traumatic months in captivity she learned to trust one of the volunteer handlers, and she is now used as a foster parent and in educational programs. Golden Eagles can live 50 years or longer so one of CFBP's goals for this bird is to let her become comfortable with additional handlers because she's expected to out-live the one handler she now trusts.
