This falconry video discusses the captive breeding of birds of prey. It discusses how falconers breeding raptors provide a crucial stable population to help if wild numbers drop, as they did with the peregrine falcons due to DDT poisoning in the 1900s. Captive breeding of raptors can be a hot topic point. This video discusses several angles of the issues.

I would support Ben propagation program 💪🏼
Thanks for the wonderful postings. I am not a falconer. I operate the cameras and make videos and postings on the Wilmington Falcons Facebook page. This year we had some unusual activity. I could find no info on a Google search so I am asking you or your viewers if they have ever heard of this: During second to fourth weeks after the hatch the adult male would line up with the hatchlings and get fed with them. He was not aggressive and the female seemed to have no problems filling his beak along with the nestlings. (he was not the father - he took over the territory three weeks after the previous male's eggs were laid). The behavior eventually ceased.
Did you ever find out why?
Thank you for this video. I worked for a falcon breeder for 12 years. It's very strenuous work that takes a lot of dedication. It is also so important . I'm in Germany and our regulations are also very strict. A goshawk can be taken from the wild in some states but unfortunately that's the only species.
Is working for a breeder/in a breedery good pay?
glad you are back
I agree with you, Ben. Thanks for sounding the alarm ⏰️. Many species need help. If humans will only listen!!! 🤞🙏
I am glad you are feeling better great video I am hoping to start a propagation project in the next couple years if everything goes well
I always appreciate your efforts and thoughts ❤
Sounds like falconry associations need to push the USFWS to put funding into this. More falconers would do it if they had the financial backing.
We're lucky in Canada as we have a lot of breeders with good programs. If you're breeding non indigenous species the rules are surprisingly lax.
Ben, you are correct on all of this. I don't think it is an issue with desire. I could see myself being interested in ths, but for me it is mostly an issue of time and space that is needed. It would definitly help if government eased up on regulations.
New info on peregrine! You need to show us a “deep dive”if you will, about the saving of this bird!

Ben, What are your views on free lofting vs. tethering? Especially for Redtailed Hawks. Indoor ideas for Kestrels. Thanks for all your videos. B
Your house looks like the house from Texas Chainsaw Massacre.
Great video
Hi Ben, Do you recommend a novice to buy a captive bred bird or capture a passage bird for someone living in Utah? (I am assuming that this is to be done legally in either case.)
Our rules are strict but at least we have wild take. In Mexico there's no application process you only have to register your "Aves de Presa" but you can't take a ferruginous or anything else protected anyway. Most English falconers will probably never touch a wild hawk.
from what i know, the US has the best laws overall. In germany, it is literally impossible to get into falconry, while in the UK everybody can just "buy" anything captive bred (as 2 extrem examples).
In my opinion, the US has the worst laws . They’re trying to kill falconry totally and separate people from raptors. Now they’re going to kill thousands of wild barred owls .
Here in Italy it’s stupidly easy to get a bird of prey and both diurnal raptors and owls are abundantly bred (it’s only legal to fly caprive bred birds and many wildlife education facilities that use falconry techinques have owls) to a point that in some (bad) breeding facilities you can buy an eurasian eagle owl for 400€ (~430$) and a harris hawk for a little more that that, and people who have very little idea of what theyre doing are getting themselves one, sometimes without any guidance from falconers or just keeping them as pets (happens a lot with owls) using falconry techniques poorly wich causes a part of the public like animal rights people to dislike falconers who also tend to be very divided so actual falconry is not thriving:( the only birds that kind of avoid this whole mess are the really expensive ones or the most niche hunting birds like accipiters and also some falcons but it’s hard to actually find quality animals (because just like in the us the original falconer guys who did propagation are becoming fewer and serious hunting falconers, who also tend to be a buncch of older men, are rare because our territory doesn’t suit most hunting anymore as actual wild quarry is getting rare and most young people just do raptor pest control or education)
god this feels like a rant but italian falconers rlly need to get their stuff together the legislation is silly (as an example you need the same GUN license for practicing falconry that you would need for shooting) so I think we have the opposite problem here :,)
Amazing information! Can you do a video about the pros and cons of hybrid hawks?
How long should Jesse’s be for a sharp shin hawk
which species of raptor is the most likely to become domesticated
Jason Caldwell out of West Virginia. Best breeder in North America!
👋. Do raptors like sweets? 🙏
Falconry in my country is prohibited, one needs special permit, or rather, exemption permit to practice falconry.
I had to come to UAE for falconry, if one can call it that

as usual, short-sighted policy is biting us (the US) in the ass
