The eagle's life It is said that the life-span for the eagle is 70 years which is longest among all birds. If the eagle want to live up to 70 years old, It has to make a difficult and important choice at the age of 40. The eagle's talons begin to get blunt when it has reached the age of 40 that it can no longer be able to hold on to prey properly. The beak of eagle will become so curved and long that it can almost touch its chest. And its wings become more and more heavy making it very hard to fly. In this moment, the eagle has two choices, either wait for death or to fight fate and go through a painful metamorphosis then let itself live. This is a long process, the eagle needs 150 days try hard to fly to the top of the mountain, nest at the eage of the cliff then stay there and not fly. Firstly, The eagle will strike the rock with its beak until the old beak falls off completely and waits quietly until the new beak grows out. It is a long transversion. Secondly, It will go through a more painful process what pull out the old nails one by one with its new beak. Thirdly, The eagle pull out its old feathers one by one when the new nails come out. And then wait to the new feathers grows out for 5 months. Lastly, The eagle finally can fly again. Its livetime can be extended by 30 years. It is more important that the story tell us that never give up whatever you go through right now.
