Hunts cooperatively in family packs like a wolfpack with wings. The only true team-player raptor.
- Populasi
- Common and widespread; global population on the order of 100,000-1,000,000 mature individuals
- Habitat
- Sparse woodland, semi-desert, cactus/mesquite/palo verde brushland, riverside trees and marshes with scattered trees, increasingly suburban washes and open areas
- Fakta menarik
- Harris's Hawks are among the very few raptors known to hunt cooperatively in family packs of two to six birds, coordinating flushing and ambush tactics — group hunts are measurably more successful than solo hunts, with capture rates rising roughly 10% per additional bird added to groups of two to four.
