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

Hawk or Eagle?

Cannot be. Hawks are notably smaller than their predatory cousins and a lot less common in Nigeria. They are rather known for the speed of attack than carrying capacity. Likely to be the more common and far bigger eagle.

Hawks and most big birds of prey take any animal they can carry off to their nests to be consuned. A toddler and a new born baby is no exception . The harpi eagle the biggest predatory bird has been known to snatched fully grown goats and monkeys. This bird is not sent by the Satan as some will think, it's just a predator doing what predators do. #nowyouknow

If it was an eagle, it would be understandable. A hawk would not have enough strength to carry an animal as big as a four day old baby.

This has happened before in my area... Though I didn't witness it but a few eye witnesses confirmed it.


Guy leave those doubters doubting the unimaginable strength of a hawk!


A hawk can carry a full blown chicken, I mean an animal more than two time its size.

Little wonder the Ibos attached 'lion' to its name in ibo.

Hawk don't have the power to lift a baby. It is likely to be an eagle.

Hawk or Eagle?

Black sparrowhawks can carry about their own weight in prey.

Known to carry fowls/guinea fowls of around 1.5 kg.

A very hungry large female with chicks to feed might attempt carrying something larger. Some human babies weigh less than 2.5 kg. 2.5 kg, considered the normal minimum birth-weight for humans. The baby's weight was probably too much for it to carry.


They easily carry certain owls, smaller hawks and smaller mammals.
