6:49 "eyes turn red when it matures"
must be one of those *Uchihawks*
I felt this
LMAOOOOO
easily top 10 comments on youtube ever lmaooo
It looks like a Philippine Eagle
They probly caused this bird to open all 3 tomoe sharingan
Ever since I was a kid I dreamed of owning a raptor. My Side of the Mountain was an essential cornerstone of my childhood.
I would love to see more!

Sounds like my ex haha. I had always dreamed of having wolves, foxes, hawks, etc.
So amazing!
I love that book
Loved that series, always get so excited when I spot a peregrine falcon. Saw one hunting pigeon outside my work two years ago, was so damn cool.
That book was also a cornerstone of my childhood too. I'm thirty now and I hope in the next ten years I'm ready to try falconry but I know I don't have the time to dedicate right now
Me too brother. Ford makes great trucks. Can't go wrong with a raptor.
I really want to watch the process of bird/falcon training
Watch Max Powell i recommend that channel.

I want to watch someone try to train their first raptor, lol
That is really interesting how they use that net to catch them, I had no idea how it was done, that's really cool
i agree.
When I was younger I always wanted to get into this. Once I got a better grasp on how involved the process was I decided it wasn't for me. I'm excited to be able to follow along the process with you. Thanks for sharing.
Same
The hawk sure looks comfy... now I want to be blindfolded and wrapped in a sock, hahah!

I'm sure the @cia could help.
They done put this bird in a straight jacket and a padded helmet 😂🤣😂
I used to work with raptors, now I train and freefly parrots, the similarities of training the two are close but parrots actually look to you for comfort whereas raptors only see you as a food source
Captors are superior the. If I was a raptor, I would surely only care about food from humans. Parrots are still wonderful birds tho.
Ever train a crow/raven?
It's amazing how calm the bird seems after being caught and restrained, it's not even twitching around or anything.
It's because of the hood. Not extreme stress. It's like putting a sheet over your bird cage, if you have ever had a bird you will understand what I mean.
@@joewymn1232 no joe it's because of the hood on it as well as the stocking. But all you really need is a hood to keep them calm. The nylon stocking just makes it easier to handle them till you get home.
@@seangere9698 I'm mostly wondering WHY birds seems to be so calmed by lack of visual stimulation. I suppose any animal is the same in some sense, but I don't really see people putting hoods on lions or dogs to calm them down like with birds.
@@CaptmagiKono Truthfully I couldn't tell you why it calms them down. I just know from first hand that it does. My best guess is that Hawks, Eagles, and Falcons are strictly diurnal and when they have a hood on it tricks them into thinking it's night time. The reason it doesn't work on cats and dogs is they are up both during the day and night. This is one of the reasons you won't see a hood being put on an Owl. These are just my best guesses as I'm not a biologists and have no formal training in these areas.
@@CaptmagiKono Imagine trying to fly without being able to see where you're going. Birds that did that probably didn't live long enough to pass on their genes. Now it's a strongly reinforced trait to not fly or flap when it's dark. But they'll still adjust their footing and move a bit on the ground, walking is just more forgiving that way.
Haha, I noticed the tail feathers bunching into your stomach & was thinking "he's gonna rough those up a smidge" right as you chimed in with "this is a rookie mistake". Lol Well done explaining everything. It'd be super easy for non-falconers to understand, & for me it was increadibly refreshing to have someone who actually knows what they're talking about making a video with all of the correct info. I've flown kestrels, but never a coops; excited to watch the progress. 👍
Another rookie mistake is showing this video on how to trap them alot of assholes hate this birds thanks to show them this
Oh and if hes a rookie no trapping coopers also
@@trickjohnes4789 what tf are you even saying?
@@BanishedandBroken you dont have a clue figures
@@trickjohnes4789 there's always some dude full of hate who will find fault no matter what you do..... Congratulations you're that dude! 😂
3:01 Kudos to Joseph for calling out his mistake
When I was in high school I trained a Kestrel falcon. I'd fly her free everyday when I got home from school. I trained her to the lure and to return to me when I called. One day when she was out flying, a Red Shoulder hawk attacked her from behind. She never had a chance, but I saw her try to fight back... Nature won out in the end...
This Sounds Extremely Interesting, Would You Be Willing To Tell Me More ?
@@OmarCapital Maybe...
@@svpearlsailacapegeorgesail4758 👀
Hopefully you let all these viewers know that they need to take a exam and go through the process of a sponsor...
@@phillipnette777 That's a different story, my story was in 1973. DF&G inspected my mews and knew what I was doing.
Some people don’t support you trapping hawks but it’s not like you can go to a pet shop and buy one
Very true
Not sure why the snow-flakes are particularly triggered about Hawks, what about every other hunting animal out there?
A professor at my school has several rescue hawks. And you can find places to buy them online.
I don't get that. Falconry is one of the most highly regulated things you can do with an animal, and the hawks that they're trapping are young birds that are likely to die otherwise. Plus falconers often only fly a bird for a year or two, train them to hunt and then release them to breed in the wild... There's really no downside to the wild population. Of course, I also disapprove of selling hawks, so I'm a bit biased.
@@lyreparadox Exactly. But I would point out that you're right to disapprove of selling hawks, as do I, because that takes away all the balance of the catch and release nature of falconry. If you're going about it the traditional way, where you catch a young bird, train and hunt it for a couple of years, and then release it when it's grown- you're actually drastically helping the wild population, as well as the individual bird, eliminating its most vulnerable stage of life and giving it protection, training, and the food that it earns. Buying a bird erases all of that, because you now have purchased a wild animal that you have no incentive or intent to release into the wild, and you aren't the one who collected it so you don't know its specific habitat and you lose a large chunk of the bond you could otherwise have. And when you bring money into the equation, people are no longer concerned so much about the bird's well-being, but now instead about their own profit. And the whole thing is just a nasty idea.
This was so educational, thanks for sharing! I've always been fascinated with falconry and especially the process for catching. Seems like falconers take a lot of pride in keeping the birds safe and not too stressed out.
Please continue this as a series!! So freaking interesting
Fantastic! I'd really like to see you take up falconry again. The sport could use an ambassador with the passion and dedication you've demonstrated in minkenry.
Truly the sport of kings... this should be a very exciting series
6:48 they get sharingan as they get older lol
Lol
Really enjoy the Hawk content! Please make it into a playlist. I'd also appreciate the days you've had him when you show the clips.
It was originally through binging falconry videos that I found the minkery videos. It will be super interesting to see this process from Joseph's perspective.
OMG! Those hawks are so beautiful, such majestic animals!
Love seeing this guy trap after listening to him and ben chat on their podcast... so much fun thanks for sharing
This is an amazing addition to your channel I can't wait for more
12:45 he looks like a vulture more than a hawk, the way hes hunched over :)
Wow I've always wondered how they do that. Thanks for video joe!!!
You are a true beast master mr. Carter. Truly amazing
So awesome brother. I am studying now to become a Falconer. This video has really helped me man. I appreciate it.
Fascinating!!!
Great and interesting video. Your commentary about falconry is first class, keep it going.
This makes me want to take up falconry.

@@AdrianaLopez-bq4rs Thank you!
Very very cool! I have always been interested in falconry.
This is awesome! I love learning all amazing animal hunting stuff!!!
Can't wait for new videos about this little murderous package of feathers. Love the new direction
new to the channel.. have seen the mink and dogs, and this is a new vid. for me.. but I think I am already sure I will Love it.. and Know you will be doing an awesome job. !
Love these sort of videos 👌 keep up the good work 😎
I known you the mink man but should do more of this
Jason, well done and please make more about this falcon, it's really interesting.
@Joseph Carter the Mink Man, that talon on the inner front toe you refer to as "The kill claw" is something passed down to birds from their predatory dinosaur ancestors, specifically their closest cousins, the dromaeosaurs, or raptors. Velociraptor, Deinonychus, Utahraptor, Dakotaraptor... they evolved the killing claws on their feet for the exact same reason; to pin their prey down, stab it, and hold it in place while they tore it apart and ate it. The link between birds of prey and their dinosaur ancestors becomes very clear when you look at dromaeosaurs and hawks, falcons, and eagles. They share feathers (including big wing feathers, as proven with Velociraptor and Dakotaraptor as well as multiple genera from China), carnivorous habits, the same weaponry (other than teeth) and some were even capable of flight (mostly the smaller, tree-dwellers like Microraptor and Changyuraptor). Pretty cool, right?
Beautiful.
Hey I just wanted to say I really appreciate all of your videos thank you for being such an interesting person please continue and don’t get discouraged by the bad comments if they ever happened you are doing a great thing on TH-cam please continue thank you
Yea more falcons!!! And continue on more mink.
Thanks for making this video Joseph, it's great content.
I want to start the falconry part of my life! I’ll have my license in a couple of years for sure
i love the way the hawk looks so comfy with the hood
Okay I know it's not hurting or bad for the falcon, but TELL ME THAT DOSENT LOOK CRUEL!
4:33
Videos like this are the reason I want to become a falconer. Keeping the last of our dinosaurs around.
Love your stuff man and very good of you to spot your own mistakes. If i could i would take up ratting too and falconry now that i have seen some stuff
Im from new Zealand and we have very low population of native falcons and I saw one and it did the same plucking thing in a tree
Why do I love this stuff so much?
Watch Max powell
Ok! 😁
Can you give me a link?
@@angelicakurzweil7794 th-cam.com/play/PLsbacqp3eDYMzbIPU3i6Jodh8m4OZUO84.html
Thanks!
Thanks man✌️🇮🇪
Awesome! 😀
Yay you doing falconry
First there was the owl burrito, now the hawk burrito!
That is so awesome
so cool
I died laughing seeing him in the sock. Just such an odd sight.
Great video, being a birder aad member of the NY State Falconry Association I have great interest in Falconry. Red tail trapping season is going on here now, but only Juvie's can be trapped.
Anyways great video.
Well done
8:35 the bird is like "don't touch me, no no noooooooooo"
Simply awesome video , I would love to see the progress.....
Nice new series!
Very interesting.
Them boys put that bird in a gimp suit 🤣
Great video!
i love falconry and its great because it saves alot of birds lives
I’m a bird .. save me from bumble foot plx
You are not here to protect nature, you are just enjoying the feeling of successfully taming an eagle.hypocrites
It is a funny respond.
Great video
Awesome video! Very interesting👌🏾👌🏾👌🏾👍✌🏼️
Cool!
Great video 🥰
I love your videos its really Great! And! I loooooooooove birds
I believe the eye cover is called a creonce
The real question is how do you catch the bait birds?
Pet shop
My parents would feed pigeons rice that had been washed in vodka. The pigeons would get drunk and fall over, making them easy to just pick up.
@@misterperson974 lol
awesome video
Neat!
I’m gonna do my due diligence and make an attempt, this has been a desire of mine since a young boy
Dude I didn’t understand until I saw the claws, but they are seriously raptors 😮
i would love to see more falconry vids
ya looks sooo comfortable lmao
I’m going to start falconry soon can’t wait!
Where you live
@@shable1436 Oklahoma
I love this video. From now on when looking at bird anatomy, it will be heart, dentary, yada yada, tarsometatarsus and 'kill toe'.🤣🤣🤣
Just an idea for the future, the local falconer around my town swears by using dwarf hamsters for bait. He’s used the same 3 or 4 hamsters for about 3 years and says the birds can’t resist them
Gosh, I did apply for falconry exam already half year, but still did not read the falconry books for exam ........
From mink man to haaaaawk man
I had a female RTH when I was a boy (my dad had the certification but the bird was my responsibility). It was a rewarding experience
This is going to be fun being a bird man pigeon flyer in particular I've always had a love hate relationship with the raptors lost many a roller to coopers at yhe same time have, always wanted a kestrel or harris I used to have a little male kestrel that would fly around with my kits I know he was sizing them up it was funny though they weren't scared of him probably out weighed him by a bunch...lol..
“Shorter, killer claw” so the velociraptor in bird form is immediately where my mind went
And also wild dogs (shown in the video) actually on average kill quicker than lions. It looks a whole lot more brutal because they rip the internal organs out but often the death is brought on relitavely quickly. There are exceptions like when the dogs bring down big game like kudu or eland but the same can be said for lions and buffalo which can take up to 45 mins to an hour for the buff to expire.
It also depends on the number, the less wild dogs the longer it takes to dispatch the prey.
I can't wait for my license!!!! I already have a red tailed hawk outside my house
Is it legal to follow one back to its nest and take a tiny baby or an egg to have one from really young.
You have to have all the appropriate licenses and permits capture, or even just handle birds of prey.
@@JosephCartertheMinkMan ok
I was told if you touch a birds feathers with bear hands it gets rid of this thing on their wings that they use to dive into the water.
E_xclusive this bird doesn’t dive in the water
@ 9:45. This bird is like. “What thaaaaaaah HELL IS GOING ON MAN!?”
Hi there,
I just bought one and I think he is only 5 or 6 months old. Do you think I can be able to tame him?
Are you planning using him hunting food for the family??
Isn't it called a sickle claw?
How do you catch the bait birds lol
It's really hard to do falconry in Texas.
Holy going to get that Hawk barehanded damn dude all i see is this huge flesh tearing beak mate xD
This is off topic for this video, but have you ever considered trying to raise otters for hunting muskrats and brown rats in the water? It's probably much harder to get your hands on one because they're protected in a lot of states they used to be common in, but I think that could really pay off if you could find a legal way to raise some otter pups. They're very intelligent and are very social animals, so I bet they could help in a lot of areas the mink struggle with regarding teamwork. It would kind of be like crossing your hunting dogs and mink into one animal.
Yeah, the legal aspect of doing so is what has prevented me from getting an otter
@@JosephCartertheMinkMan Really? So is it something that you would otherwise be interested in? I know that there are a lot of other things that come into play, with licensing and cost probably being the biggest. But that's just a really cool possibility to think about, to me at least.
@@reddragonair3147 yeah I would probably focus on fishing for large carp if I had an otter.
How do i make or where do i buy a trap like this for trapping pigeons?
Man U have a fun life
