| Koohii Story 1 | "My peregrine falcon recently has been having confidence issues - recently it dives out of the sky and misses the target completely. To boost its confidence, I got a nice, fat turkey, killed it, and then set it up on a big needle so it looked like it was still alive - just loafing about. Then I went to my peregrine falcon - ""hey buddy, look! A nice fat turkey. I bet you can get it!"" It goes for it, but it spears itself on the needle!!" |
| Koohii Story 2 | The peregrine falcon is the fastest animal in the world. It can reach speeds of over 322 km/h in a dive - over ten times as fast as a turkey! |
