This species is native to Canada, North America and Mexico. Threats to this species are mainly due to hunting, poison (usually unintentional; such as poisons, e.g. DDT, for ingestion by rodents to kill off those 'pests' - ingested inturn by these birds leads them to be also poisoned). It had been an endangered species locally in North America (still thriving in Canada) but since 1995, it's population has recovered and stabilised again, going through a threatened status, to finally, a least concern status. (the bird photographed is very much alive and healthy - not a stuffed one)
