Harpie spending time at altitude. He was hunting a way to fly around the top of the tree or from tree to tree. Monkeys and sloth that developed in the tropical forests is the main victim of this eagle. However, sometimes harpie also attack other large birds, such as the fig parrot. In the nest harpie, the scientists also discovered the remains of aglouti (large rodents) and other mammals that live in soil. This indicates that the occasional harpie also fell to the ground.
