Three species of raptors in Australia are said to have the ability to pick up flaming sticks to drop them further away, this lights new fires and flushes out even more prey. This hunting method is yet to be captured on camera but Aboriginal people have always known them as "firehawks", and their activity is not always a positive for other creatures.
