The Jamaican caracara ''Caracara tellustris'' is a prehistoric species of terrestrial bird in the falcon family, Falconidae. It was native to the island of Jamaica in the Caribbean, where it probably inhabited dry forests in the island's south. The Jamaican caracara was large and had diminished wings; it was probably mostly terrestrial and may have been flightless. ''Caracara tellustris'' became extinct during the Quaternary extinction event. This species was described based on fossils discovered in the Skeleton Cave in the Jackson's Bay Cave system on the south coast of Portland Ridge. ==References==
