Red-tailed hawks are known for their impressive hunting skills and can capture prey that is significantly larger than themselves. They have been recorded taking animals such as rabbits, squirrels, and even small foxes. In rare cases, they may go after larger birds like grouse or ducks, but typically, they target prey that weighs less than their own body weight, which is usually around 1.5 to 3.5 pounds. Overall, their hunting success depends on the availability of prey and their hunting environment.
