What is the worlds biggest bird of prey?

Depends what you mean by biggest - height, weight, wingspan or flying. For height you may choose Ostrich, Emu, Rhea or Cassowary. An Ostrich can grow to 9 feet tall and so will be the heaviest. Great Bustard for weight of largest flying bird. Or Albatros for flying, or Condor for its 11 feet wing span.


What is the UK's biggest bird of prey?

The biggest bird of prey in the UK is the white-tailed sea eagle which was made extinct in Scotland in 1918 but reintroduced in 2007. In England, the largest is the Golden Eagle, which is very rare. Most British Golden Eagles are found in Scotland but there are a few in the North East of England. The largest relatively common bird of prey in England is the Red Kite, now spreading across several areas of England (and also found in Wales). Although it is a bird of prey it lives mostly on carrion (dead animals).


What bird is the largest bird of prey?

FALSE STATEMENT. "The larges bird of prey in the world is not an 'eagle' but a Condor. Californian Condors are the longest (from beak to tail tip) but the Andean Condor has the largest wingspan. They are a type of new world Vulture. The largest eagles are most likely Harpy Eagles." FALSE STATEMENT. THE QUESTION WAS IN REFERENCE TO THE LARGEST BIRD OF PREY. Condors are true SCAVENGERS, NOT birds of prey. They feed on carrion and are therefore not true birds of prey. Meaning they don't kill their own food. The largest birds of prey are eagles in all aspects. They are true predators, although they will readily feast on a fresh carcass. Largest in what aspect? The Stellar's Eagle is the heaviest, the Phillipine eagle is the largest in terms of physical dimension, and Harpy's are the bulkiest.
