(Marco Polo mentions it). Although the practice is gradually disappearing in this area, hunting with birds (especially with eagles) is still practiced in certain regions of Kyrgyzstan and Kazakhstan. Training eagles takes a lot of time, (3-4 years), must be done by one person, and requires constant daily attention. Kazakh people use female eagles as they are one-third heavier than the males and far more aggressive. Most of the birds, which can have a life expectancy of 40 years, are caught young, hooded and placed in a cage with a perch that constantly sways while the berkutchi sings and chants to it, to imprint the sound of his voice and impress his personality on the bird. When the eagle is almost an adult, the trainer shows it the hides and furs of the animals it must hunt so that it becomes used to the smell and characteristics of the prey. All of this is done with special commands. Training continues by dragging a fox fur behind a galloping horse. Not all eagles can be so trained, but those that do show intense loyalty. Although never tethered they always return after killing their prey. The season for hunting with eagles is from October to February. The larger eagles malt during the summer months and do not fly. So during the tourist season demonstrations of the art are limited to showing the magnificent birds and flying smaller falcons. Demonstrations can be arranged in Issyk Kul, in the Naryn region and near to Bishkek. << Photo - Shamil Zhumatov / Reuters A hunter with his tame golden eagle sits on a stage during an annual hunting competition outside Almaty, Kazakhstan on Dec. 9, 2011.PowerPoint Presentation: Shamil Zhumatov / Reuters - A tame golden eagle is seen during an annual hunting competition outside Almaty, Kazakhstan on Dec. 9.PowerPoint Presentation: Photo : REUTERS/Shamil ZhumatovPowerPoint Presentation: Reuters Pictures Hunters with their tame golden eagles gather for an annual hunting competition outside Almaty December 9, 2011.PowerPoint Presentation: Reuters Pictures A hunter poses with his tame golden eagle after the awarding ceremony at an annual hunting competition outside Almaty December 10, 2011.PowerPoint Presentation: Reuters Pictures A hunter hold his tame golden eagle while speaking on a mobile phone during an annual hunting competition outside Almaty December 9, 2011PowerPoint Presentation: Photo : REUTERS/Shamil ZhumatovPowerPoint Presentation: Hunters with tame golden eagles get ready for an annual hunting competition outside Almaty, Kazakhstan.
