The Lugger Falcon is a resident of the central and northern parts of the Indian sub-continent, the Himalayas, Pakistan and Afghanistan.

Loss of habitat and extensive use of post war agri-chemicals has threatened the Lugger populations in their native country, so much so that the Lugger is considered a threatened species.

Luggers will predominantly feed on small birds but will also take reptiles and small mammalian prey.
