It does happen. Big hawks can carry off mammals weighing a couple of kilograms.

No matter what the elders decide, anything short of total burning is unacceptable.

They are waiting for elders to decide on the fate of the bird. If na oyinbo people it is understandable because they will conclude that the poor bird is hungry and so will let it go.
But for here in naija must we wait for the elders.

Poor hawk

Rat pursue buhari from office

Snake swallow N36m from iron safe

Hawk tried to kidnap kidnap 4-day old baby...

Animals in naija are husslin sha!!!

Nairaland is now a dumping ground for false news,trying so hard to get traffic!!!Hawk would carry even a one month old baby without problem....The claws are enough to kill that 4 day old in seconds

hmm..can a hawk carry something bigger than its weight and size....this country self....only in nigeria we hear this stories oooo

it could be Eagle instead and not Hawk. Eagle sometimes try to carry a full blown adult. Babies are no march to eagles.

that's not a hawk but owl

how is that an owl

Africans and senseless lies

Village people at work

castrol180:
End time hawk

Every evil things always emanate from the ipob land and when a dog bites a child it is never a news but when a child bites a dog then it is a news

Now some flatinoes will be shouting "see what Buhari has caused ooo, he has refused to feed the hawks and the hawks economy is bad thereby making them willing to feed on yimiri"

Shows the capacity of your brain. Ode!

Nigerians and animals...na wa o...seems all our problems now are animal related..

Hmmm

All These Animals Don Dey Misbehave To We Der Oga In D Beginning Na Cow We Enta Snake Nw Na Eagle Dis Is What We Call Animal Farm

Hawk should be remanded at ikoyi prisons pending outcome of investigation

Its difficult to believe but I believe.
Some years back my youngest brother bent down to fix a goalpost on a broad space where we play football when a hawk flew directly to him as he bent over, I screamed and shouted, he immediately stood up and the hawk flew away.
I kept wondering why a hawk could try to attack my bro, anytime I recall that incident.
Mehn, I can't tell the reason but I was truly shocked while my friends just laughed.
This was like 9 years ago. I only told my mum .
Thats why I believe this. You may choose not to believe, its your believe.

But you should be literate enough to know that a hawk is a predator bird that preys on flesh. For it to have been flying and sighted a baby and tried to carry is no news and has nothing to do with geographical locations. You seem not to have gone to school

This thing wan snack on a whole baby, you get mind o.....

That is not an hawk, that is an eagle, hawks don't have the muscle to lift a human baby.
