Abstract

The article presents a study aimed at evaluating hematological parameters for captive harpy eagles (Harpia harpyja) kept at the wild animals breeding center of Itaipu Binacional in Paraná, Brazil. Topics discussed include a brief overview of the harpy eagle and its endangered status, a comparison of the hematological parameters for the eagles at Itaipu Binacional with those published by other authors, and the huge variation between haematological values of male and female harpy.
