Music video featuring a special free-flying Bald Eagle named “Challenger” (in honor of the lost space shuttle crew) cared for by the non-profit American Eagle Foundation (AEF).
He’s a “human-socialized” bird accidentally raised by the people who rescued him - after being blown from a wild Louisiana nest in a storm as a baby in the late 1980s. Declared “non-releasable” by federal and state wildlife authorities, he was trained by the AEF to perform educational free-flightdemonstrations at high profile public events.
He’s the first Bald Eagle in U.S. History that learned to free-fly into stadiums, arenas and ballrooms during the singing of the Star Spangled Banner. The celebrity eagle has appeared at numerous major sporting events like the World Series, Pro-Bowl, All-Star game, BCS National Championship, Fiesta Bowl, Men's Final Four, etc.
Challenger has also flown before 4 U.S. Presidents!
His life story is told in a children’s storybook titled “Challenger, America’s Favorite Eagle.”
