About These Birds
非洲隼雕
The African Hawk-eagle weighs about 1.45kg and inhabits woodland and forest across sub-Saharan Africa. It is a bold and powerful hunter of medium-sized birds and mammals.
兀鹫
The griffon vulture is one of Europe's largest flying birds and a crucial scavenger in Mediterranean ecosystems. These social birds nest in large cliff colonies and can soar for hours using thermals without flapping. Vulture populations faced a crisis from the veterinary drug diclofenac, which proved fatal when consumed through contaminated carcasses.
