Answer by ahimsa
Falconry is a very intensive sport that involves several years of apprenticeship, special caging requirements, and inspections from wildlife agencies before you can own one.

Also, there are different levels of falconers that can own different species of birds. For example golden eagles and many owls are for master falconers, only.

Beginners can usually keep red tails, peregrines, and kestrels.

Please consider purchasing a captive bred bird.
