When I was a kid I loved books like My Side of the Mountain , Island of the Blue Dolphins , and Julie of the Wolves. Stark, a white Gyrfalcon , is a falconry bird born and raised. It’s all about finding the highway and getting out, even as Karma shows increasing survival skills and Stark masters the art of the hunt.

Wolves, for example–the probable ancestors of dogs–live in packs that hunt together and have a complex hierarchy. Hare suspects that the evolutionary pressures that turned suspicious wolves into outgoing dogs were similar to the ones that turned combative apes into cooperative humans. Evolving Gifts.

I once knew a guy who kept and raised cats. Dogs are similarly dispersed across size ranges, with Foxes, Coyotes, and Wolves taking prey across different parts of the size range.

Dirt hawking is a form of falconry that involves hunting rabbits and other small game with Harris Hawks (other hawk species also qualify). One of the primary reasons that these hawks make such excellent falconry birds is because they are one of only two raptor species (the other is the Galapagos Hawk ) that hunt cooperatively.

From Hiro, we learn how Northern Pygmy Owls are “rule breakers,” not incubating eggs till all are hatched and then raising owlets that mature at the same rate even though the eggs were laid asynchronously (as most owl eggs are). They are also hunted. They roost and hunt, at night (mostly) when we can’t see them.
