“…Raptors from the orders Accipitriformes and Falconiformes have relatively larger eyes than other birds [Howland, et al, 2004], with eye masses 1.4 times greater than an average bird of the same body mass [Brooke et al, 1999], and the most acute vision of all birds known to date [Fischer, 1969;Hirsch, 1982;Reymond, 1985Reymond, , 1987McIsaac, 2001;Potier et al, 2016aPotier et al, , 2016b. However, the need for acute vision might differ between raptors depending on their foraging ecology; some of them are predators hunting moving prey of various sizes on the ground or in the air, while others are mainly or exclusively carrion eaters, usually searching for large carcasses or aggregations of other scavenging species [Del Hoyo and Elliot, 1994].…”
