We describe two previously unknown cases of birds hunting rodents in tropical forests of Southern Vietnam. Number of belly-banded squirrels ( Callosciurus flavimanus ), caught in wire traps, shows a strong correlation with the number of crested serpent eagles ( Spilornis cheela ). Oriental pied hornbills ( Anthracoceros albirostris ) hunt red spiny rats ( Maxomys surifer ) over elevated areas of tropical forests.
