 Bazas and forest hawks in the genus "Accipiter" may take reptiles from trees whilst other species may hunt them on the ground.Snakes are the primary prey of the snake-eagles ("Circaetus") and serpent-eagles ("Spilornis" and "Dryotriorchis").Apparently, the mammal-hunting, huge and endangered Philippine eagle ("Pithecophaga jefferyi") is most closely related to the snake eagles.
