At Al Maktoum Airport (Dubai), peregrine falcons have been officially recruited to combat intruder drones. This is not an advertising ploy, but an effective program. How it works: Drones pose a threat to takeoff/landing. Peregrine falcons attack them at an altitude of up to 1000 meters without damaging their equipment (they are trained in soft "grabbing"). Result: 0 incidents in 6 months. Why this is important for falconry: It confirms the unique skills of hunting birds. It opens up new labor markets for Sokolniki. Our platform: Now here you can find birds trained for such tasks — with video skill tests.
