Llaima

Llaima

Geranoaetus polyosoma

This beautiful Variable hawk came to live at the Refugio because she has loss of vision in her left eye, probably the result of an impact with a building in the city of Santiago. Her loss of vision prevents her from hunting, so she could not survive in the wild on her own.

Human impacts are often silent… a large reflective window or building can interrupt an animal’s life forever.

Llaima came to live at the Refuge, where she shares her life with Elvis, with whom she entertains a lot in various areas of the Refuge.
