"Murphy, a 31-year-old bald eagle, desperately wanted to be a dad, so much so that he started taking care of a rock like it was a baby."
It is hard to blame Murphy for catching the baby feels at his ripe age. Most of us hoomans have gone baby mad by this age and as we know all too well it is hard to ignore those maternal and paternal urges. And there is a good chance that we too would adopt a rock out of desperation, if we did not have the option of adopting animals…

Just look at his dedication, at his commitment to caring for this rock 'egg'. Unfortunately, Murphy had to be relocated to his own enclosure when he became too defensive off his rock baby. However, this intense commitment to protecting his young is what prompted his carers to give him his own baby eagle, so who is to say what is a disproportionate response.
