One naturalist described the world of Mother Nature as "a huge restaurant".

But Bald Eagles have been taken off the Federal Endangered Species List; whereas, Loons remain on New Hampshire's Endangered Species List. Loons are also the world's oldest surviving member of all birdlife.

For eons, Loons have had to deal with predators Mother Earth will never see again.
