Falconers can take birds from the wild, but they are responsible for it and must put birds back into the wild. If a red-tailed hawk is found dead, you should call the U.S FWF and report thins like how it might have died, it's age, and whether or not a band is present. They may want t examine it personally and perform an autopsy.

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.
Every bird is a vertebrate.
