Wildlife Management

A red tail hawk caught on Scott Air Force Base spreads its wings displaying an aggressive posture May 1, 2013. While 97.5 percent of all air strikes involve birds, strikes with over animals such as deer, coyotes, turtles and other mammals have caused problems to aircraft. These birds are tagged and then transported away from Scott. Depending on the age of the hawk lets wildlife biologist know how far the hawk should transferred away from base to keep the aircraft safe. (U.S. Air Force photo/Senior Airman Tristin English)
