Abstract
Birds of prey use their feet to hunt prey, particularly when occurring on the ground, and they are good candidates for studies on footedness, i.e. the preferential use of limbs. This preference is still poorly known among birds in general. Several successful attempts at predation by rehabilitated Falconiformes and Strigiformes were analysed.File in questo prodotto:
