Great story.

One of the host's on Good Morning America was asking if the gun shot scared the eagle and questioned if shooting was a good idea

It's extremely irresponsible to shoot a rifle into the air.

Sheesh. Guy does something good and the idiots find something wrong with it.

No wonder this country is circling the drain.

Oh yeah?

In Iraq, Chris Kyle freed a pterodactyl that was trapped in a similar situation, but it only took him three shots

I read the article, and while I appreciate the effort the article says the guy shot about 125 rounds to break the rope Not a very high percentage of hits

You ever shot a limb off a tree with a rifle? Takes a LOT of shots.

I tried once, and just ended up with a limb missing some bark in one area, people think what they see in the movies actually works IRL.
