Summary
In the 1960s, the bald eagle was on the brink of extinction caused by the pesticide DDT and other human pressures. Once declared an endangered species, the eagle has come soaring back, yet most people know little about the eagle beyond its striking appearance. From the pristine wilderness of Alaska to the Upper Mississippi River Valley, go behind the scenes to discover the eagle's surprisingly tough struggle to survive in the wild.
