The saker falcon (Falco cherrug) is a large falcon species. It breeds from Central Europe eastwards across the Palearctic to Manchuria. It is a partial migrant, which means that some part of the population is migratory, some part is not. In Europe, for example, a part of the juveniles are migrating, while adults are mostly resident.

Previously, it was variously classified as a morph, a subspecies (Falco cherrug altaicus), and even separate species (Falco altaicus).
