The classification that applies to raptors that are bred in captivity but are not necessarily native to the wild is "captive bred." This term specifically refers to birds that are raised and bred in controlled environments, such as breeding facilities or falconry establishments, rather than in natural habitats. Captive breeding programs are often implemented for species conservation and can involve both native and non-native species.
Captive bred raptors are distinct from wild or naturally occurring populations, as their breeding occurs under human supervision. This practice allows for the maintenance of genetic diversity in populations, education about raptors, and the possibility of reintroduction efforts for endangered species.
While other classifications such as "exotic" may describe the non-native status of certain species, they do not signify that these birds have been bred in captivity. Similarly, "hybrid" refers to a mix of two different species or subspecies, which doesn't apply to the broader context of captive-bred raptors. "Non-native" can describe species found in an area where they did not originate, but does not indicate whether they were bred in captivity. Thus, "captive bred" is the most accurate classification for raptors raised in human-controlled environments.
