The crane hawk is a predatory bird with very long and flexible legs. It lives in tropical forests and uses its legs to extract prey from tree hollows and other hiding places.
The crane hawk differs from other hawks with its long legs and ability to hunt in narrow spaces. It helps maintain balance in nature by controlling the population of small animals.
Immature form that undergoes metamorphosis before adulthood.
