Jackie, a bald eagle whose 14-year residency on the shore of Big Bear Lake in southern California was followed by millions of people worldwide, has died. The Los Angeles Times described her as "arguably the world's most famous bald eagle."

For years, viewers tuned into a livestream of Jackie's nest, watching her raise eaglets and interact with her mate, Shadow. The broadcasts documented key moments in the eagle's life, including instances when she incubated her eggs while nearly buried in snow.

Jackie's death earlier this week drew international attention. The eagle's livestreamed life inspired a conservation project at her lake home.
