Lost Harris’s Hawk Discovered in Udon Thani After Two Years
A tame Harris’s hawk has been found at a private residence in Udon Thani, nearly two years after it went missing, with local authorities seeking its rightful owner.
According to a report by Khaosod English, a tame Harris’s hawk was discovered at a home in Udon Thani on November 7, 2026. The bird’s presence was revealed when a resident’s dogs began barking persistently, leading the homeowner to investigate the unusual disturbance. Upon inspection, the resident found the raptor, which appeared to be a pet that had been missing for approximately two years. Local authorities and community members are now working to locate the owner of the bird, as it is clearly accustomed to human interaction. For residents and visitors in the Udon Thani area, this incident serves as a reminder of the importance of reporting lost pets or exotic animals to local authorities. While the bird is currently being cared for, it remains unclear how it survived in the wild for such an extended period or how far it may have traveled from its original home. Anyone with information regarding the hawk’s ownership is encouraged to come forward to ensure the animal is safely reunited with its caretaker. Further updates are expected as the search for the owner continues.
