Te Rangatira, as he is affectionately known by the locals of Hamurana near Rotorua. This native New Zealand Falcon or Karearea is famous for trying to parent a brood of domesticated ducklings instead of eating them. He finally gave up after the ducklings refused to eat the food provided by the falcon. Instead of the scraggly bodies of day old birds they were offered, they preferred the duck food bought to them by their owner Bernie.
