Media type Web Country/Territory United Kingdom Date 16/04/2018 Description Peregrine falcons, the fastest known animal on Earth, barrel through the air in pursuit of prey at speeds over 370 kilometers per hour (230 miles per hour) during a specialized attack strategy referred to as “stooping”. Surveying from up to 915 meters (3,000 feet) above their targets, peregrines begin a stoop by pulling their wings back into an aerodynamic "T" shape and plummeting toward their intended target with such astonishing precision that they can end their descent by snatching their prey with their oversized talons or knocking them unconscious.

The peregrine preys on other birds which it catches mid-flight, so it must intercept a moving target at these high speeds. The falcon’s strategy for successful interception was recently shown to closely match that of manmade missiles, but it was unclear how its demanding, high-speed maneuvers gave it an advantage.

Famously, they attack smaller birds, like starlings, by using a technique called a stoop. This involves flying upwards to a high altitude then dive-bombing back down at breathtaking speeds that regularly reach more than 200 mph (320 km/h). The fastest stoop ever recorded stands at 242 mph (nearly 390 km/h).

The research could also help with the development of autonomous flapping-wing drones.

While this hunting technique is fascinating to watch – unless you’re the prey – it begs the question: why do peregrine falcons chose to enact such risky behavior, and endure significant physical and cognitive demands, to catch their prey?

But it wouldn’t be possible at slower attack speeds, according to a new study.
