Why does a hawk and a falcon have the same translation in spanish if they are two different birds?

The translation is "halcon" for both birds if you translate it.Why does a hawk and a falcon have the same translation in spanish if they are two different birds?
Well, my dictionary says:

hawk - azor

falcon - halcónWhy does a hawk and a falcon have the same translation in spanish if they are two different birds?
Why do we have the same words for a big furry animal and to support or carry (bear) ?
