plural laggars · alternative lugger · alternative luggar · alternative luggur

1. The jugger (Falco jugger), a mid-sized falcon native to the Indian subcontinent, Afghanistan, Iran, and Myanmar, which is similar to the European lanner falcon (Falco biarmicus) and the American prairie falcon (Falco mexicanus).

   Falconry is a difficult art to master, some species more so than others. Sakers and Luggers are known to be problematic, and easy to lose, or to lose patience with.
