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.
