DELTA, B.C. (CP) —
Rick Jerema's specialty
is clearing airport run-
ways’ of birds which
endanger uireralt,

Jerema, faleoner
with the Heifel Migratory
Bird Sanctuary in’ this
municipality south of
Vancouver, says a falcon
can swoop down on a
block of gulls in seconds
and clear them from the
runway.

“A real hunting falcon
terrifies other birds,”
Jerema said. “It's aim is

adly. its speed is in-
ore le and they know
it's out to kill them.”

He said it takes about
two months to train a
falcon, with the female
prairie faleons and
peregrine falcons being
the f alconers’ favorite

“The females are
larger than the males and
go after bigger game

like gulls and rabbits,’’ he -

said. “The Arabs even
train them to 80 after
small gazelles."

Jerema said the first
step in training is to get
the falcon used to its

handler. Then the bird is -
‘ introduced to the lure—a

long: leather strap to
which meat or a dead
bird is attached.
