Which is the bird of prey |
|
Answer»
Bird of prey, any bird that pursues other animals for food. Birds of prey are classified in TWO orders: Falconiformes and Strigiformes. All birds of prey have hook-tipped beaks and sharp curved claws CALLED talons (in nonpredatory VULTURES the talons are PRESENT but atrophied). In spite of the similarities between the two groups, many authorities believe that they are not closely RELATED but rather that they developed similar methods of living a predatory life. |
