Data from: Sexual size dimorphism, prey morphology, and catch success in relation to flight mechanics in the Peregrine Falcon: a simulation study ...
In common with many other raptors, female Peregrine Falcons Falco peregrinus are about 50% heavier than males. Their sexual dimorphism is thought to allow breeding pairs to exploit a wider range of prey through a division of labor: the male being able to catch more maneuverable prey species; the fem...

In common with many other raptors, female Peregrine Falcons Falco peregrinus are about 50% heavier than males. Their sexual dimorphism is thought to allow breeding pairs to exploit a wider range of prey through a division of labor: the male being able to catch more maneuverable prey species; the female capable of carrying larger ones. Given the difficulty of assessing the catch success and load carrying capacity of both sexes of falcon in the field, we here adopt a novel approach to test the division‐of‐labor theory by using a detailed physics‐based flight simulator of birds. We study attacks by male and female Peregrine Falcons on prey species ranging from small passerines to large ducks, testing how catch success relates to the flight performance of predator and prey.
