On the Kill

The peregrine falcon which is the fastest flying bird was devouring its food - a small bird, with complete passion and attention in a desert national park in India. It took the bird not more than 15 minutes to eat up the entire bird, completely. This showed how survival is important for every creature on this earth and how each one use the resources to its optimum.
