The Black-breasted Buzzard is a large, powerful Australian raptor with brown upperparts, a distinctive black breast patch, and pale underparts with a rufous wash. It is found in arid and semi-arid interior Australia, inhabiting open plains, mulga scrub, and lightly wooded grasslands. It feeds on rabbits, lizards, and carrion, and is noted for its ability to use stones as tools to break open emu eggs.
