<dinofyi-dinosaur slug="buteo-conterminus"></dinofyi-dinosaur>† Buteo conterminus is an extinct Pleistocene hawk of the genus Buteo, known from fossil material recovered in the United States. Buteo hawks are broad-winged soaring raptors that hunt small mammals, birds, and reptiles. This extinct species inhabited open and semi-open habitats of North America during the Pleistocene epoch, contributing to an assemblage of now-extinct raptors that shared the landscape with Pleistocene megafauna.
