raptor is another word for bird of prey, more succinct definition
----------------

Editor: While "raptor" can mean bird of prey in English, it is broader than 鷹 and may include owls or vultures; it also has a dinosaur sense. The current gloss already captures the intended meaning. 鷹 refers to birds such as eagles and hawks, and does not include owls or vultures in modern usage. Adding "raptor" would undo the precision of the existing definition.
