<dinofyi-dinosaur slug="circaetus"></dinofyi-dinosaur>An extinct or fossil snake eagle of the genus Circaetus from Spain, this Cenozoic raptor is related to living short-toed snake eagles of Africa and Eurasia. A specialist carnivore feeding on reptiles, fossil Circaetus material from the Iberian Peninsula documents the deep history of snake eagle lineages in Mediterranean Europe.
