Hawks steer attacks using a guidance system tuned for close pursuit of erratically manoeuvring targets

Hunting styles and flight morphologies of aerial predators are adapted to their habitat structure and prey behaviour. Here, the authors reconstruct flight trajectories of Harris’ Hawks Parabuteo unicinctus and find that these follow a mixed guidance law that is not thrown off by erratic manoeuvres o...
