What animal is faster than a race car, a sky diver, or any living thing on Earth? Answer: The Peregrine Falcon 🦅

Join us on the cliffs of Acadia National Park while we check out this bird that's designed like a fighter jet. We cover the Peregrine's super powers that keep it alive at the record speed of 242 miles per hour, the invisible chemical threat that almost wiped them out completely, and the genius comeback plan that brought Peregrine Falcons back to the east coast.
