The Chimango Caracara (Milvago chimango; hereafter,chimango) is one of the most common raptors in southernSouth America (White et al. 1994).

It typically inhabits open areassuch as grassy Andean foothills, heathlands, shrub-steppes,forestedges,andagricultural lands suchas farms andpastures(Fraga and Salvador 1986, Morrison and Phillips 2000).Chimangos also inhabit urban and peri-urban areas wherethey take advantage of these human-dominated environmentsto find nesting sites or food (Fraga and Salvador 1986,Bellocq et al. 2008, Solaro and Sarasola 2015).
