In this falconry video I explain and demonstrate coping the beak of a Peregrine Falcon. IF you advance to the 3:10 minute make you can skip the explanation and watch how it is done. Birds beaks and talons constantly grow. In captivity with a richer diet, often natural processes are not enough to keep them sharp and the proper length. So in falconry, zoos, rehab centers and breeding programs, trimming and shaping of the beak and talons must often be done once or twice a year. This skill is called Coping. THIS PROCESS DOES NOT HURT THE BIRD IN ANY WAY AND CAN NOT BE FELT and is akin to filing your nails. The part of the beak being trimmed or coped is nothing but keratin (the same as your fingernails) and has no feeling.
Originally this process used to be done with files. Most veterinarians and wildlife workers now prefer a dremel. Because this makes the entire process infinitely faster and thus causes less stress for the bird.
I recently started a new facebook group to teach and promote falconry and connect falconers around the world. Please support this effort on this facebook page:
