Falconry (Burg: Fauconnerie, Crecerellerie (in Yonderre)) is the hunting of wild animals in their natural state and habitat by means of a trained bird of prey. It is practiced particularly widely in Burgundie, Yonderre, Zaclaria, and by the South Coscivians.

It was imported to Levantia during the Crusades in Audonia by knights from Yonderre, where it enjoys the largest following on that continent. Due to the close relationship between the countries, and it's shared cultural morays, Fauconnerie is also popular in Burgundie. The Gamehawking League of Levantia is the official body that regulates Fauconnerie as a sport in Levantia. Since hunting with firearms is heavily regulated in Burgundie, Fauconnerie is popular amongst game hunters.
