Can you buy a trained bald eagle that will sit on your shoulders as walk?
Bald eagles are protected by the Bald and Golden Eagle Protection Act and the Migratory Bird Treaty Act, making it illegal to possess, sell, or buy a bald eagle for any purpose. Additionally, bald eagles cannot be trained to sit on a person's shoulders or for any specific performance. They are wild animals and do not have the same instincts as domesticated species, thus making such tasks unsafe and unlikely. Even if it were possible, it would still be unlawful due to the aforementioned Acts.
