A hawk is predatory bird with excellent vision and a long tail. These raptors fly through the sky in search of fires, which they use to burn down small patches of spinifex in order to smoke out their prey and create a tiny slaughterhouse. Their prey consists out of boodies, snakes, and other tiny creatures.

Hawks can be trained as hunting companions if they have been raised from the moment they hatched, but need very strict instructions to function as desire.
