London's Metropolitan Police have expressed interest in the Dutch initiative that trains eagles to hunt drones. Spokesman Geoff LeBaron said they birds were capable of avoiding the drones’ rotors: “They seem to be whacking the drone right in the centre so they don’t get hit – they have incredible visual acuity and they can probably actually see the rotors.” The police are also interested in using drones for surveillance and crime prevention. Criminals are increasingly using drones to spy on targeted homes or to deliver drugs to prisoners.
