The '''Cuban black hawk''' (''Buteogallus gundlachii'') is a bird of prey in the family Accipitridae, and native to the island of [[Cuba]]. Traditionally considered to have been a subspecies of the [[common black hawk]], it was only recently confirmed to have been a separate species.
==Threats==
Cuban black hawks are inhabitants of mangrove swamp areas and large river banks, feeding primarily on crabs. Due to human development and drainage of these wetlands a decline in the number of birds has been observed.
