The Galapagos hawk (Buteo galapagoensis) is a large hawk endemic to the Galapagos Islands. Similar in size to the red tailed hawk (Buteo jamaicensis) and the Swainson's hawk (Buteo swainsoni) of North America, but the size is variable across the islands as is recorded for many animals native to the Galápagos. Buteo galapagoensis lives mainly on insects such as locusts and giant centipedes, as well as small lava lizards, snakes, and rodents. Order: Falconiformes (or Accipitriformes), Family: Accipitridae, Species: Buteo galapagoensis (Gould, 1837)
