The Galapagos Hawk

The Galápagos Hawk is one of the few animals that hunts for prey on the islands.

It's a small hawk, only about a foot tall.

One female will mate with four males in order to breed. All of the males will assist in taking care of the young.

The Galápagos Hawk eats iguanas, mocking birds and some insects that live on the islands. The bird also feeds on carcasses of marine mammals and sea birds.
