I think the training and hunting aspects of falconry are interesting and I applaud the men and women who can master such an activity. It does however make me wonder about people's principles towards wildlife. Training a bird of prey to hunt and kill small game seems to be totally okay in many people's minds. Yet training a dog to trail and tree an animal like a bear somehow seems reprehensible to some of those same people....obviously some people like to pick and choose when it comes to determining hunt ethics.

A dog treeing a bear does not happen in a natural setting. So it seems that humans are dictating that a large predator will be run by dogs to exhaustion and then shot out of a tree. Whereas, the falcon hunts to survive and eats what it kills. The falcon is created to do this. That's what is the difference.

I dont know... all I remember is that I was inundated by raptors from when i was a little kid, by their movies, photos, at the zoo.. I didnt know there is something called "falconry" till I grew older and read more and more books that lead me into falconry books. then saught our other like minded people in my local area and then I was among them.... it was not like one day I saw someone flying a bird and say Oh thats cool lets try it.

So I've pretty much memorized all of the California Hawking Club Apprentice Study Guide answers and explanations and I am wondering how much more I should learn before taking the test. I've gone to the Modern Apprentice site and read over all that a few times, and have just received both the books in North American Falconry and Hunting Hawks (unfortunately it doesn't look like I'll be finishing them this summer, though). I've also gone to several raptor centers and volunteered at ARC and HAWKE (mostly for setting stuff up, so I won't be learning too much from that) and spoken to several falconers. How much money should I save up? I live in a suburban area in Florida and plan to trap a red-tail once I become an apprentice and get all the legal papers filled out. I have not yet gotten a hunting license or completed a gun safety course so I need to learn more about that, as well. I've noticed that the California study guide and the New York one have different answers for the question asking what you should do if someone is footed by an eyass red-tail. NY says to pull the hallux out of your arm and then push the foot forward, but California says to squeeze the back of the bird's head to try to get it to let go before attempting what the New York study guide says... So how should I answer? (What answer would be considered right in Florida?)

@mjben55

+Pie Face There certainly are different technique to get a RT off of your arm. I have been footed by some pretty large birds and in my experience of 15 years as a falconer.......Grabbing the hallux is a viable method IF you don't mind the hawk gripping tighter as you try to pry it from you arm. That is the method that I have used. AND the head method works also but I have never used it. So I would go with the correct answer for your state exam. Either way, you are gong to get footed at onetime or another and just learn to not get your hands in the way. AND teach your raptor that you are no threat for him/her to worry that you are trying to take their food. Good luck in you endeavor.

It will probably be a few years before I can truly pursue the sport, since my location isn't all that practical (the neighbors have chihuahuas that would look like dinner to the average raptor and the housing association definitely wouldn't approve of a hawk, unfortunately.) I heard one site saying that small plastic beads could be glued to a raptor's talons to keep it from injuring other birds that will be cast-mates (the beads can supposively be easily removed by twisting them off). Do you know anything about this and if so, is there any use for using these beads during manning, or is this idea bogus?

+Pie Face I honestly haven't heard of that one. There are lots of ways to socialize raptors to fly in a cast. That particular technique doesn't sound very viable. I would never use something like that to prevent my bird from doing what it does instinctively. I think there are better techniques to socialize raptors to fly in a cast. Operant conditioning comes to mind. I use it, many master falconers use AND if you understand that particular method, it is IMHO the best method. Safe journeys . :-)

Why do I keep hearing Falconers say that Raptors are not pets? How exactly do u define a pet? There's mutual benefit between both the person and the bird other than just hunting/survival. I'd say that should be considered friendship like the friendship you have with a dog. Not sure why they don't like calling them pets.

Maybe you could control where the osprey went if you had a jet ski with an area for the osprey to land, but ospreys generally aren't good falconry birds. (They are also illegal to keep in several states.) I wondered about this earlier on, but it seems that ospreys aren't very suitable for the hunt. Which is rather unfortunate, because they are among my favorite raptors.

Bryce Rush I think it mainly has to do with the fact that dogs are more similar to us and have been around humans as pets for a longer time than birds, especially here in North America. Many of their requirements are similar to ours because they co-evolved next to us, thus the lesser amount of requirements in the law books with dogs. Birds of prey, on the other hand, have a radically different set of needs and preferences. We don't know this right off the get-go because they never co-evolved next to us like dogs. It's really easy to mistreat a pet when you don't know what you're doing, and that's why we have laws about this stuff. If you're willing to look into it, you can find out why there's a trapping season for birds of prey. I infer that if you trapped one at any other time of the year, the bird may be a parent to one or more chicks, and if they were gone than those chicks would suffer. TL;DR: Dogs are better with people than birds because they've been around people longer. Birds probably have nests outside the trapping season.

@Maustongirl19

9 жыл бұрын

Bryce Rush Dogs are much easier than birds of prey. The parts other than training seem hard because they are. The training is just a fraction of what it takes to maintain these birds. With dogs, you feed them a bowl of kibble from the store. Take them on walks. Pet them. Throw a ball. Training can be difficult but they are infinitely more simple. With raptors, they need to have a varied diet of whole food that is portioned and weighed (often to the gram) on a regular basis. You then need to determine how quickly they burn off each different type of food, in what temperatures. You need to condition them with various exercises to keep them physically fit. The birds themselves must be weighed at least once every day, and you have to determine which weights it will hunt the best at. Mess up a few ounces and you can lose your bird. It will fly away without a second thought. It doesn't want to be with you the way a domestic animal would. Its opinion of you is based almost completely on food. You must be able to find the right kind of game for your bird. You have to have the right landscape. You cant fly falcons in the woods. Different birds have different attitudes. A redtail could miss a slip and fly up into the trees to wait for another. A goshawk could miss a slip, get angry, and come hit you in the back of the head because its all your fault. You need to have the knowledge to train them right, and that takes time. No matter the amount of training the bird has had, it is wild. If you make a wrong move at the wrong time one day, you'll end up with a bird giving you a quicker-than-you-can-blink death grip, in which it shoves all of its talons into your hand. You feed a bird in the mews every day as a routine, and it will start flying at you and latching onto you when you try to enter the aviary. There are tons of little details that most people don't recognize when considering becoming falconers. Not only that, but they also need specialized equipment. Anklets, jesses, leashes, hoods, perches.... the list is endless. It takes a lot of money and time to do it right, but it is so worth it!

even though they portray this as a sport, it is also used as a conservation method. the survival rate for birds of prey in the wild is low when you factor in availability of game to the birds, habitats being torn apart due to the continuing expansion of humankind, and the hunting of other animals. A lot of falconers will raise injured birds and chicks, teach them the necessary skills to survive on their own, and set them free so they can reproduce

+XxAirbornexX No, Airborne is a skill that you can get in addition to your MOS. What's your interest in the Airborne? I've spent a few years in the 82nd and I ought to warn you that it's not all it's cracked up to be. If you're still interested in serving when you get closer to 18, pick an MOS that will aid you in your civilian life after the Army. You can be Airborne with any job available, but your recruiter is likely to just use you to meet a quota if you're not thinking of your own future.

th3m4dj4ck I want to be a wildlife biologist, which is studying wildlife. I dont think theirs anything in the army that can help me with that, unless I do photography and I don't want to do that in the army.

th3m4dj4ck why isn't it the 82nd what it's cracked up to be. The only reason I want to be a paratrooper is because I don't want to be regular infantry

you first need to get a sponsor to learn from for 2 years and you need to take your states falconry test. once you finish with your 2 years you will be an apprentice and be able to take only an american kestrel or a red tailed hawk. as stated in the video

I may retest and look for sponsorship/ move back California. Seems like Washington states falconry club is non existent.

How does your arm not get tired from holing it lol

Out the video games!, what a devil!

Yes, it not simple lifestyle, it is a warrior+royal/life style -harmonious WITH other species

I just saved a baby falcon!

we use falconry to get kids of the computers- so how does one start- well actually there is a website.... on the internet... with ur computer. kool

The irony!

I know the falconry but just I need license,I know how to training falcon and I know how to catch the wild falcon

Off the video games lmfao

I think everything has a 100% mortality rate

You might want to do some research on this statement. Birds are declining because of habitat loss, big development, corporate farming and tens of 1000's are being killed on a yearly basis by our clean energy windmill farms. Falconry has no impact on wild raptor populations. It has been documented scientifically by several independent wildlife biologists and USFW.

"falconry has only been in america for less than a hundred years" ... america has only existed for like 200 years

History lesson; Europeans have been here (America) since the 16th century. Since you wrote this in 2016, let's do some math: if Europeans have been here since the 16th century and it's now the 21st century that's 5 centuries, making it approximately 500 years (obviously this century isn't over, so Europeans have been here for a little over 400 years). America declared for its independence in 1776. From 1776 to 2016 is 240 years. In the 1920s is when people gained interest in falconry because of a drawing in a National Geographic magazine. Instead of saying "96 years" the guy decided to round up, like you decided to round down by 40 years. Of course, the sport didn't really take off until the 1950s when laws and restrictions were put into place. So really, the sport has been around with growing popularity for the past 66 years or so.

fladdada mean lol I was about to say that. More people lived in the Americas than Europe before the colonies

The state guidelines is a joke. Not just anyone would be interested in something like this. I trust that anyone truly interested in this art would take good care of their bird.

Um...

His chicken almost flew away after eating

Hello. Pigeons not falcons. They fly as fast, dive and can be a pet. And they are safe . And dont cost much. And more color variety. No regulations. We can attract more young folks to our Mother Nature this way. Thanks.

luke tazbier .. lol. :) what attracts me the most about falconry (other than that they are quite beautiful) is having that special bond with an amazing creature. :) When I was young I tried to (unsuccesfully) capture a wild bird. heh. When I learned about falconry I was smittened. I think if you're interested, you definitely need to dedicate your time/money/energy in training him and hunting with him.

FIRST

in the uk capturing a wild bird is not allowed, we buy a captive chick and train!

+onehappy pepper (onehappypepper) Thats what I would want to do. ( live in the US) As someone thats had experience raising animals I can attest that if you get it as early as possible like almost when they first open their eyes, they have a better chance of imprinting on you, seeing you as protector and alpha.

onehappy pepper Well you are the experts. Besides wouldnt catching said bird in the wild jar its brain a little bit? Im not sure I condone catching a wild bird, thats known only freedom its whole life, and forcing it to live a captive life as an essential slave.

Any smugglers in the comments I just want the danm hawk

was this guy chewing dip?? what the heck?

fuck all these rules and regulations. Do your research and treat the bird with respect and care. Any decent person doesn't need big brother telling them what to do

Can they hunt patriots? Doubt it. 28-3. #neverforget
