Best Answer

The larger female hawks like the Red Tail, Ferruginous, Harris's, and so forth could probably do it if they wanted to, but it is doubtful that they can carry away more than 7 or 8 pounds. In any event, hawks usually stun or kill their prey and eat it on the spot without flying away.

No. People are too big, and hawks too small. That have been known to grab small pets- but a rabbit is about the maximum weight that a hawk could lift.

Why it is easy to pick up 45-55kg girl but hard to pick up 14kg gas cylinder?

When you pick up a person, that person is helping you pick them up. The gas cylinder can't help you. . Try this with a person, anyone who will cooperate and is a reasonable weight that you can lift. First lift them normally as you would any person. Then ask the person to lie limp as if dead, and try to pick up that same person from the same position. You will see the difference, how the person helped you the first time.

Why would a hawk attack a person?

A hawk might attack a person if they are too near to it's nest, or trying to harm/capture the hawk itself. Maybe if it somehow thought the person was prey, but that's unlikely. A hawk might be trained to attack, but that is also unlikely.
