If a raptor is easily over exerted, what could be a potential cause?

The best choice indicates that both aspergillosis and being in poor condition can contribute to a raptor being easily overexerted. Aspergillosis is a fungal infection that primarily affects the respiratory system of birds, leading to decreased oxygen intake and overall stamina. Raptors suffering from this condition may tire quickly due to inadequate oxygen supply during exertion.

Similarly, if a raptor is in poor condition, which includes factors like malnutrition or illness, its physical endurance and strength will be compromised. Poor condition can result from several underlying issues that may affect a bird’s overall health, making it more susceptible to fatigue during activities like flying or hunting.

While frounce (a disease caused by a specific parasite) does affect raptors, it is not typically associated with causing overall exertion issues in the same direct manner as aspergillosis or being in poor condition. Therefore, the combination of aspergillosis and being in poor condition offers a more plausible explanation for the rapid exertion fatigue observed in the raptor.
