Are there any other falconers who play EVE?
Dude my wife and I both have flown in the past. Shoot, probably a dozen different types of BoP from Harris to Kestrels and even Barn Owls to some massive african owls. Been hunting [for rabbits] with Harris and Sakers (i was on ferret duty which was great). IF only we had our own place in the country to have our own birds... till then I fly pixelships.

How do you get an African owl? It's hard to imagine that it would be legal to import them. But from your post, I guess it is. |

In the USA and Canada all native birds are protected by the Migratory Bird Treaty Act. It specifically prohibits the unauthorized Taking (ie. harasment,capture, killing) and or sale of such species. There are a few caveats obviously. One very large one is hunting. Anyone who has ever needed to buy a "Duck Stamp" was subject to the MBTA. A small section of the act allows for the use of birds of prey for falconry.
Species that are not native to the USA or Canada are generally exempt from this law and are then only covered by international treaty (such as CITES) by the laws of the country that the animal is native to.
Long story short; there are legal ways to obtain and move species from other countries. Perhaps I am viewing it through rose colored glasses but , as a whole falconers tent to respect the laws and do things legally. We are far to few a demographic to defend ourselves so there is little to no room to bend the rules. It would be easy to take away all falconry programs. |

I think having a hawk would be pretty cool. A lot of work, but fun. |

This morning, I saw a fox chasing a squirrel. Would it count as falconry if I trained a fox and just threw it at whatever I wanted it to kill? |
