Falconum sunt triginta septem species, per orbem pervulgatae. Falcones adultae habent alas tenues et acuminatas, quibus velociter volare et directionem? mutare possunt. Falcones peregrini observati sunt celeritate 320 km/h volantes; unde velocissimae in orbe terrarum bestiae sunt. Homines diu falconibus in venatione usi sunt, quae falconaria appellatur.
