The eagle reaching roughly six-foot (two-metre) wing span, circling a public park – Montreal’s city park of Mount Royal.

The eagle then swoops down upon its prey from behind and appears to lift an unsuspecting toddler off the ground by its coat with its talons and carry it a few feet before dropping it on the grass.

If the video is fake it is ver well done one, yet conspiracy theorists who lurk in the internet world analysed the eagle catching a child footage frame-by-frame.
