Native Americans Given Permit to Kill Bald Eagles



Native Americans of the Arapaho tribe were given permission to killed American Bald Eagles as part of their religious rituals.  The American Bald Eagle is the United State's national bird.  It is used as a symbol of freedom in many seals.

While I respect all religions and their ways of worshiping, I feel any rituals that deal with killing animals just for the sake of killing them should be cast away as archaic.  Animals are God's creatures and we should only use them for valid needs such as food or clothing, not to just kill.
