by Giovanni Granati (Author)
Modern Technologies Applied to Falconry and Reintroduction by Giovanni Granati is a landmark manual bridging the ancient art of falconry with the latest innovations in avian training and rehabilitation. Rooted in over 20 years of hands-on experience and enhanced by collaborations with the University of Teramo's bioscience and veterinary faculties, this comprehensive guide introduces a cutting-edge training protocol designed to optimize the fitness, recovery, and survivability of birds of prey.
Granati's method treats raptors as elite athletes, with carefully structured training regimes, muscle-building routines, and scientific tracking through drones and other technologies. By integrating classical techniques with high-tech tools such as drones, electric lures, and mono-wing aircraft, the book shows how to prepare raptors for release post-rehab or reintroduction without developing dependency on human handlers-- thereby supporting their natural predatory instincts.The book spans traditional falconry practices, imprinting models, and care routines, before diving into topics such as:- Flight dynamics and muscle physiology Modern reconditioning and drone-based training systems Clinical rehabilitation strategies in Europe and North America Falconry ethics, osteopathy, and nutrition planning Worksheets for structured training cycles
