Note 507 — Chapter XXXIV · EYESS SAKER AND GAZELLE[491]
D. C. (Douglas Craven) Phillott translation
Wild hawks seldom if ever kill on the ground. They stoop at the hubara, knock it about and put it up. Many trained hawks even will not, when in high condition, bind to an hubara on the ground but stoop at it till the falconer flushes the quarry.
