Eagles are members of the bird family Accipitridae, and belong to several genera which are not necessarily closely
related to each other. Most of the more than 60 species occur in Eurasia and Africa. Outside this area, just two
species (the Bald and Golden Eagles) can be found in the United States and Canada, nine more in Central and South
America, and three in Australia. Many different species of eagle are found in the Philippines.
