Do peregrine falcons have natural predators?
Peregrine falcons are fast, aggressive and fearless predators located at the top of their food-chain, and therefore, rarely suffer from predation by other animals. Great-horned owls and golden eagles are known to occasionally kill fledgling peregrines, and less often, adults. Peregrine eggs sometimes fall victim to raccoons and red tail hawks. The nestlings of ground nesting Arctic peregrine falcons may be preyed upon by predators such as grizzly bears and foxes.
