Hawk or Eagle?

[RoarOriole]

This link from the WolfQuest FAQ should answer all your questions, it shows a close screenshot of the eagle-the golden eagle.
WolfQuest Golden Eagle: http://www.wolfquest.org/bb/viewtopic.php?f=35&t=34834

The words in that post alone says it all.

The large bird you may see during the final mission (Journey to Rendezvous Point) is a golden eagle. Golden eagles are nowhere near big enough to attack and prey on an adult wolf, but they are big enough to attack a wolf pup. The way to defend your pups is by charging at the eagle before it kills them or carries them away. Attached are a couple screenshots of this eagle, taken by amandapj1998.

Like I said in an earlier post, it's a golden eagle. I just got a book from my library about eagles, and the golden eagle was in it.

People usually call that bird hawk, but i think it's an eagle.

[Myota]

i call it a hawk but all i want is IT TO DIE!!!!!! it keeps killing my pups and it is so annoying!

[Toralu]

I call it a Hawk cause it sounds much cooler x3

Id have to say a raven as ravens are usally found flying around wolf dens but it may be a vulture as these are really big meat eating birds also im not to sure because it must have to be a strong bird to kill and carry a wolf pup.

The feet of a vulture are too weak to carry food. Therefore the bird in the game can not be a vulture.

When I first saw the thing, I thought it was a homicidel raven.
Then I got a closer look and realized it was an eagle.

I would have to say Golden Eagle.

Hawks are just a bit to small.

Not only have the devs, admin, and mods specifically said it was a golden eagle http://www.wolfquest.org/bb/viewtopic.php?f=35&t=34834 , but it even looks like a Golden Eagle:

It is much too big to be a hawk... and I don't know of any hawks in Yellowstone that have that color. Though it may sound like a red-tailed hawk http://www.allaboutbirds.org/guide/Red-tailed_Hawk/id it isn't because it has no red tail (and it's way too big). They may have used a red-tailed call in the game though, as their calls are often used for other hawks and eagles in movies and video games. (If this is the case though I hope they change it, because WQ is supposed to be a realistic game... and then they'd stop confusing everybody!)

I do know it is a Golden Eagle, but I still call it a hawk, or sometimes even a bird ^^"
