How fast can a raptor go?
Raptors are a group of birds of prey, including eagles, hawks, falcons, owls, and kites. They have a variety of speeds depending on the species and individual bird, but some can reach speeds of over 200 miles per hour (320 km/h) in a dive. The peregrine falcon (Falco peregrinus) is considered the fastest bird in the world, and has been recorded reaching speeds of up to 240 miles per hour (390 km/h) in a stoop (a steep, high-speed dive).
