Raptors, also known as birds of prey, are a group of birds characterized by their predatory behavior and sharp, hooked beaks and talons. Raptors are carnivorous and feed primarily on other animals, such as rodents, insects, fish, and other birds.
Examples of raptors include eagles, hawks, falcons, ospreys, vultures, and owls. These birds are highly adapted for hunting and have specialized physical and behavioral traits that enable them to locate, capture, and kill their prey.
