I just spent fifteen minutes discussing with a LOTR nerd the reason why the eagles just didn’t take the ring to Mordor.
We hired a new guy, and I found out today that his dog’s name is Samwise. So I asked his theory behind the eagles…the guy had some prepared thoughts all ready to go and went through the whole explanation.
Long story short - the eagles would’ve been corrupted just like Gandalf would’ve been had he taken the ring.
I sort of asked it as a joke, and quickly realized it’s not a joke to some LOTR fans.

Or, the obvious answer: a suicidal charge on a bird with a couple people into a land defended with its own flying beasts
