Definición

'Harriers' refers to a group of medium-sized hawks found in grasslands and marshes, or, in sports, to long-distance runners or running clubs.

Uso & Matices

In zoology, usually plural for the bird species; in athletics, a plural noun for cross-country or distance running clubs or competitors, especially in British English. 'Harrier' alone can refer to either. Be careful not to confuse with the Harrier jet (aircraft) or the dog breed.
