Eagles, hawks, falcons, and owls are all raptors. Eagles are most closely related to the Buteo hawks, which include the redtailed, red shouldered, Swainson's, and rough legged hawks.
Many hawks are called chicken hawks in the United States. They include, Cooper's hawk, goshawk, redtailed hawk and red shouldered hawk. The name really shouldn't apply, as these hawks rarely molest poultry.
it can ruin the balances, ex: hawks eat mouses, and mouses go endangered, hawks go hungry, people hunt them and they go endangered.
Yes, scientists have officially made them an endangered species.
Redtailed Hawks are no longer on the endangered list, but they are still protected by the Migratory Bird Act. They've made quite a comeback over the past few years and you can see them sitting on top of telephone poles, billboards, fence posts, and in trees while driving in rural areas. In fact, there are quite a large number of urban hawks now, which is good for bird lovers, but sad because it comes from us developing their natural habitat. The red tailed hawk has always been a common species, and has never been on the endangered species list.

Red tails are very common, and can be seen in any wooded area or pastureland, even sitting on poles next to highways, scanning the ground for rodents.

No, they are a fairly common species over their range.
Red-tailed hawks often roost in trees or on high perches, such as utility poles or cliffs. They prefer tall structures that provide a good vantage point for hunting and keeping an eye on their surroundings.
