Talk:Falconry training and technique

message: New 2008 regulations are a lot less strict on which raptors can be owned be Apprentice-Class falconers in the US. The page needs to be updated. 50.80.250.150 (talk) 18:54, 15 June 2012 (UTC)
thread_title: New Federal Regulations

message: This subject is FAR too complicated and there are far too many varying opinions about how it should be accomplished, for it to ever be Encyclopedic.  Again, put 10 falconers in a room and you'll get 12 opinions.  We can agree on basics, but past that point, there are certain to be discrepancies.  Some are owing to differences in experiences, others owing to differences in experience levels/tenure in falconry.
I recommend against inclusion in Book, and remain only barely comfortable with the existence of this article at all, as it may mislead some to attempt to practice falconry based on this meager guide.
Let's talk about this some before we go adding things, ok?

thread_title: Notice of import

message: "Out of all the falconer's aids the hood is the most important piece of equipment." I believe many of the US's state falconry exams specifically state that the most important piece of falconry equipment is a scale. Having flown raptors for 12 years, I use  scale almost daily--and have never used a hood.
This also likely falls into an earlier commentor's concerns about this subject being far too complicated for a single wiki article. This article is very misleading as to how complex training a raptor is. What's next? A wiki entry on how to repair your automobile?  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 67.232.173.27 (talk) 20:25, 20 September 2011 (UTC)

message: The 'Notes' section says that federal law only permits an apprentice falconer to keep kestrels or red-tailed hawks. It says that state laws are often more restrictive - but then specifies exactly the same restriction. Presumably one of the three statements is wrong or out of date, but I don't know which. Could someone who knows where to find the regulations have a look? CarrieVS (talk) 15:14, 6 June 2013 (UTC)

thread_title:  is this wikipedia or wiki USA ?  

message: The article lacks a simple basic summary of how falconry is done.  The birds are released to catch prey.  Why don't the birds eat the prey, rather than returning with it to their trainers?  What induces this behavior?  How is the training done?    Comfr (talk) 04:18, 23 October 2018 (UTC)
thread_title: Missing basic information

message: New to Wiki. Would love to see more citations and follow up on your research. Do you do falconry yourself? Thanks!
