The predator of the eagle is humans./ Eagles don't have "natural" predators, except for as with any type of species they are vulnerable in their infancy, meaning before hatching and leaving the nest. Crows and other "thieving" birds can influence the eagle population by stealing the eggs or attacking the live hatchlings while the parents are away gathering. Don't blame humans as a whole species for being a predator to eagles, just like with any other walk of life, some bad humans can make the rest of us look bad

EagleThe eagle was a symbol born by men of action, occupied with high and weighty affairs. It was given to those of lofty spirit, ingenuity, speed in comprehension, and discrimination in matters of ambiguity. The wings signify protection, and the gripping talons symbolize ruin to evildoers. The eagle is held to represent a noble nature from its strength and aristocratic appearance, as well as its association with the ancient kings of Persia, Babylon and the Roman legions, having been the official ensign of those empires. Since then, other empires and nations have also adopted the eagle as their symbol, such as the German third Reich and the empire conquered by Napoleon. The eagle is also associated with the sun. As a Christian symbol, the eagle represents salvation, redemption and resurrection. The eagle has been represented over the centuries in a variety of different ways: wing tips pointed up or down, wings closed or rising or the eagle displayed from above with one or two heads. Parts of the eagle such as the head, wings, legs or talons, are also often symbols in heraldry. The claw of a bird and leg of a bird are always taken to be that of an eagle unless specified otherwise, and the eagle leg borne on a shield or coat of arms is said to signify that the "preyer upon others has been preyed upon," though this is highly uncertain. An interesting form of the eagle is the alerion, which is drawn without the beak or the legs. It is thought to represent a formerly great warrior who was seriously injured in combat and is no longer able to fight. The osprey may also be classed with the eagle. It is always represented as a white eagle and is referred to in heraldry as a sea-eagle.Quote from

How old is an eaglet when it learns to fly?
After about 6 weeks of being with their Parents the Baby Eagles are pushed out of their nest to go on their own.
Actually, baby eagles, or eaglets, stay in the nest until at least 11-12 weeks of age. The parents feed the babies until they leave the nest permanently. Even if the eaglets can fly well, they quite often keep coming back to the nest or stay in the area while the parents continue to feed them. Only occasionally will the parents 'kick a baby' out of the nest. Even when they do, they still care for them until they finally leave permanently.
