If you want an idea of how dinosaurs may have hunted as a pack these birds might give you a little window into that
I actually witnessed 3 Harris hawks in action in Arizona 1/5/2024. Thanks for the video I would of never known what type of birds they were except there were 3 and they also shared there kill so awesome thanks again for the video wish I had binoculars
One day when I was dropping off my son for sports camp, I saw two Harris hawks going after a snake in the woods next to the Sportsplex. They kept flying up into the trees with it and playing tug-o-war, sometimes dropping it. The snake was still alive since I could see it twisting trying to hide it's head and vulnerable spots into its coils. That poor snake was having a bad day.
They just tear everything apart. That snake was lucky really, with rabbits they de-fur it first so the rabbit just stuck sitting there while the hawk rips the fur off before seeing flesh and uh... eating it. ALIVE. just started falconry and it's not easy at all, they're so smart. I had a rat in my glove to get it to come back to my fist and secure it - he had other ideas. Cheeky hawk decided no I'm going to reach UNDER your glove because I know you're new and weak, PULL the rat out, and fly off. Luckily on the SECOND go I had one of his legs secured - he tried to make off but we caught the leash and he landed on my head dropping gross rat innards all over my hair. Little. Cheeky. Man!

My favorite kind of hawk.
It's always fascinating to watch birds hunt in packs. For split seconds, you can see their ancient ancestors taking a peek outside of their decendants genes.
If orcas are nicknamed "wolves of the sea", then why shouldn't Harris's Hawks be nicknamed "wolves of the air"? Or in Martin's case, "Wolf Hawks"?
In Harris Hawks are nicknamed "wolves of the sky" via their pack hunting tactics.
Modern ‘raptors’ have a lot in common with dromeosaurs and Troodontids
Edit: doesn’t have much to do with the video I know but I felt like mentioning it
I love the fact that they used the song "smack my bitch up" for the clip. 😆
I got to hold one of these in 5th grade, it was so cool!
NOOOO FAIRRRRRR!!!!
Attack chickens never cease to amaze
Beautiful!
I was surprised to see one today in the heart of East Sussex. Didnt know what it was to start with but struck by its beauty and also surprised that I could get get pretty close - and that was the clue which led to its identification not to mention its white band. Nice nice nice
Hawkward! :)
beautiful and very interesting.
Remember that story on The Bold And The Beautiful where Sheila kept Finn prisoner in the hospital? Imagine if the Sesame Street gang were characters in that story, Baby Natasha would turn into Superbaby, find Finn in the hospital, fly to tell Li, Bill, and Liam, and narrowly escape four harris hawks after a long areal chase.
Yes Steve yes u are XD magnificent
Harris hawks of my favorite bird in the whole world
Harris ❤️
Clever girls.
looks like Harris Hawks love "smack my bits up the prodigy"
I caught that "invaders must die" sample.

they are basically little raptors.

Since when do we have evidence of pack hunting in raptors?
They found a pack of Deinonychus remains with a Tenontosaur which inidcates they might have hunted in packs. Also they found traces of a chinese Dromaesaurid traveling in packs which shows they might have had some kind of social structure/behaviour but its not really proven.
Besides that it makes sense, hunting big prey in a pack is more sustainable than each indivuda huntig on its own, numbers almost guarantee safety and considering thei intelligence its likley they were pack animals.
But as you said, we don't really have evidence.
Well, pack hunting is still possible, but, i mean, most modern raptors do this, and it’s called mobbing. They team up when food is scarce but are still strictly solitary deep inside (this can be seen mostly in buteos and some eagle species, harris hawks are strictly solitary and extremely territorial too in environments where food is easier to find).
A herbivore and a utahraptor family were found buried in quicksand with their offspring, and there were no more than 2 adults in the block. Proof that they were solitary and only stuck to their mates for help. Because actual packs never abandon new arrivals, and i doubt two fully grown adults with an amazing sense of smell and eyesight would miss an entire pack to join, since they had lots of juveniles to protect. And even if they were in a pack, at least one member would have fallen in the trap as well.
It’s inevitable, there was a whole meal in there. So my guess is that in that time and environment, adults could manage on their own, so they did not form any sort of mobs there.
I’m not saying that packs are impossible, and i bet they were social too, but i’m only implying that all/most raptors were solitary and could form mobs when they had no other choice, just like harris hawks, kestrels, buteos, etc. Evidence shows that raptors were also solitary as well anyway, so, both opinions are right, in their own way. Pack hunting and solo hunting is something interchangeable depending to environments imo, modern raptors demonstrate this behavior perfectly.
+Here to Annoy you I doubt that's how their packs would have worked. Most social predictors now have a structure similar to wolves, a breeding pair of adults and their young. If they acted like dolphins they might have occasionally accepted new members but this would be rare if they were also territorial.
If they found a pair of them with young, and the one adult wasn't killing the babies, that would be a good indicator that they're social. They might have been a pack that was just forming.
*predators
god damn phones
Keep it real Harris hawk
come to Florida and help us with these iguana. We would love to take you out on a free guide. please let us know.
Good Stuff🦅
Which place is this...those tall cactus trees in the background
Shayari Roy This would be the Sonoran desert located in Central Arizona, USA. From the looks of the terrain I'd say southeast of Phoenix.
HighFlyer thanks
It’s cool, but prehistoric raptors don’t hunt in packs, but there were extremely social
I whitnissed a group of kites ganging up on a bunch of crows and forming a circle slightly to the side of and over the top of a large tree the crows were in. They were circling a very tall tree in back of a house across the street from me. The kytes were all screaming and every once in a while one would dive into the melee and .leave their
YOOOOOOO, they named a hawk after me

Can you share experiens for me
almost like Deinonychus working together to take down prey
marius schoenmaker
How do you know for sure that velociraptors worked together to take down prey?
marius schoenmaker
Uh huh... got any proof? Nobody has ever found multiple velociraptor individuals at the same place, why are you making things up?!
And modern raptors are strictly solitary, so what’s your argument? Harris hawks are also solitary and extremely territorial but work in groups in the desert because food is very hard to find there. Food wasn’t scarce back in the time when velociraptor was alive and they were more than capable of killing lots of animals that lived in that ecosystem by themselves, so there’s no reason for them to have been pack hunters.
And also, pack hunting is an extremely complex behavior. No living bird has ever been seen doing it (yes, harris hawks do not hunt in packs, they form mobs, an entirely different thing) and nonavian brains were not even as complex as bird brains, so how could they form packs?!? Only highly social animals with a complex brain as far as social functions are concerned can do things like these. And the perfect animals for this job are mammals. Highly social animals. Aves and reptiles are rarely social and highly prefer staying solitary. Nonavian dinosaurs were too simple for these tasks. Don’t believe whatever Hollywood tells you.
Here to Annoy you Aww that's cute, you think dinosaurs were simple.
And fyi, there actually is fossil evidence of Deinonychus and Utahraptor hunted in packs. And no, they weren't buried at different times or washed together by flooding before fossilization
OmegaFreelacer318
Lol, i never said they were simple, i only said their brains were simple compared to modern reptilian brains. Don’t question the CT scans...
Plus, a fossil graveyard doesn’t prove anything. We’ve found solo fossils as well and i can claim that it’s evidence that they were solitary, but guess what, it’s not solid proof! And the utahraptor “pack” you’re referring to was a family of 2 adults and 5 juveniles buried in quicksand... so, since when are families packs? That’s right, never. Unless there has been another discovery that i don’t know about. And nearly every single utahraptor fossil was found single.
Plus, you said a pack of deinonychuses was found. What’s your source? All we know so far is that lots of bones were found in the same location, probably from 3 or more individuals, and what’s stopping anyone from saying that they could have belonged to a family as well? But, you know, as i said earlier, mobbing is still possible. Dromaeosaurs living their entire lives in packs... very far-fetched. That’s clearly not what these animals were made for. Dromaeosaurs hunting in teams..entirely possible! And the idea that these deinonychus specimens did hunt in a team that one time and died during the fight is entirely possible. Packs aren’t.
Here to Annoy you Families can be considered packs since a lot of pack animals are family groups considering how most pack animals are composed of related individuals.
And no, not all dinosaur brains were more simple than modern reptiles. Coelurosaurians (tyrannosaurs, dromeosaurs, troodontids, etc) were more complex than modern reptiles, and closer to modern birds
The real dinosaurs from Jurassic park that dr. Grant said it's not the one you see you didn't even know the other 2 were even there.
When I was at california at grandma's house a visitor named Robert has brought a harris hawk name venus and then grandma just take me and venus a picture sometimes I keep venus to calm down with her feathers and her wings I wish venus and I would new best friends
If those hawks are domestic, do they have names? If not, my suggestions are Harold, Harry, and I only thought of 2
Michael Bisping?
Why does the comment section get turned off and the like to dislike ratio go crazy whenever there is a dinosaur video? Does ANYONE know the answer?
My hypothesis is that it's because people don't like the editing style and the dinosaur-machine analogies.
Because their dinosaurs are always inaccurate and the owners of the channel don’t wanna listen to their fans complaining about their god-awful shrinkwrapped dinosaur models and narrational mistakes as far as accuracy is concerned. People also dislike it when the comment section is disabled so that’s also a reason why the dislikes can get so high at times, lol. Mostly because of the inaccuracies though.
lmao
They look like eagles
If the harris hawks kill an antelope jackrabbit they can hunt just like wolves when the wolves kill a moose
There's a reason why Harris Hawks have the nickname "Wolves of the Sky"
TH-cam should ban this video for the wrong spelling of this hawk.
Sensationalistic and stupid.
Follow Attenborough's example and maintain some dignity.
