Abstract: 
The present paper tried to find relations between specific anamnesis of wild raptors and blood chemistry values at their day of presentation. 60 (88%) of 68 presented birds of prey showed changes in their blood values. In most birds an increase of GOT, GPT and AP was seen. Some birds showed increases of uric acid, urea and changes in the relation of Ca and P as well. A comparison between Eurasian buzzards with fractures and some without clinical signs showed a significant increase of uric acid, urea, potassium and inorganic phosphorus in the group of fractured birds. Changes of blood chemistry values after liver biopsy are investigated in the second part of the present study. Liver- and kidney values showed an increase after the biopsy. Kestrels (Falco tinnunculus) showed the maximum of the increase at the first day after biopsy while Eurasian buzzards (Buteo buteo) had the maximum at the third and Black kites (Milvus migrans) at the fifth day after biopsy.
