Who's Auzzie?

She's famous for flying during the start of every West Coast Eagles home game over the years. Also, she is Yvonne's best friend.

Fun Facts

Wedge-tailed eagles are Australia’s largest raptor.
Her vision is 8 times more detailed in resolution than humans.
Raptors eat mammals, birds, reptiles and carrion (including kangaroos, wallabies, rabbits, crows, cockatoos and goannas).
Wedge-tailed eagles reach maturity at 6-8 years of age.
Auzzie’s West Coast Eagles club debut was in 2007. In 2019 she reached her 150-game milestone!
