Owl's do in fact defecate, but that's not all of what they ate. The rest of the food that has been digested gets regurgitated, As in, the bones, fur, teeth maybe even, get spat back out in the form of a pellet.
Indeed their similarity with eagles and hawks is only evolutive convergence, DNA comparison shows they are far away from other raptors as far as with any other living birds, owls are part of an acient family of birds splitted precociously from all the others. Actually the same "raptors" family is composed by animals not so related each Others and only similar due convergent evolution, for example falcons are more relatd with parrots and passers than to eagles and hawks, which are instead related and form the clade of accipitrids. And for last but... not last in weirdness... american vultures are not related with old world's vultures but... they are relatives of storks and other members of the gruiformes family.
Strigiformes are order and raptors are birds of prey which are carnivores and omnivores even ducks and penguins eat fish etc but they are not raptors because a raptor is a bird that can fly and catch their prey with their feet. therefore owls and other birds of prey can also be called raptors.
I had parrots before as pets and I am considering this as a pet, I need to know few things before I make that decision. 1. I know owls are carnivores, how much do they eat in a day 2. Are they easy to maintain in terms of cleaning with the excrement 3. Do they require any special handling
We have this kind of owls is Romania. They sound scary as shit at night, but they`re beautiful.
What a gorgeous baby! ❤️🦉
We got those naturally around here (finland). My dad once saw one lying on the lawn and thought it was the dog, until it flew away that is.
Owl legs will never look normal to me lol
That is a brilliant name for her!
For a baby Caspian is very big but very pretty.
The thumbnail looks like a sloth lol
My favorite owls!
Breathtakingly beautiful.
She's Beautiful
I think adult eagle owls are beautiful especially their eyes
Jeez Louise look at the size of her she looks like she escaped from Game of Thrones out looking to fight the Hound.
SO cute.

I love Caspian. She has dainty, white downy stockings. I want her pretty down to not go away. But I know she has to feather out.

Careful, you'll get beat with those wings. lol

Awesome! My favorite owl by far!
Owls technically aren't raptors though. They're Strigiformes :)
NorwegianKnifeDude But strigiformes are a part of the raptor family.

DarkLight Your knowledge of Owls is impressive.

Yeah its cute now, but when it grows up, replaces its body with Machinery and tries to kill a family of thieves you won't think its cute.
Idk... if it's just killing a family of thieves, I might be okay that lol
Look at Yoll!!! She's adorable, and Owl Junior!
Hello Cathy
I don't see orange eyes... Why? D:
I LOVE OWLS I WANT A PET OWL SO BADDDD!

I had parrots before as pets and I am considering this as a pet, I need to know few things before I make that decision.
1. I know owls are carnivores, how much do they eat in a day
2. Are they easy to maintain in terms of cleaning with the excrement
3. Do they require any special handling
Nuvi Chalao 1: It depends on the age
2: No
3: Yes
Im not a pro
Anyone else notice the coati in the back?
Did an eagle and an owl mate???
No, this is just another type of owl. It's not any type of crossbreed at all, just an owl with a mildly misleading name
We call the Uhu in Germany. Like the sound that they are making. It’s funny that their English name is Eagle Owl.
Coati at 1:19 :p
Clockwerk: 0_0 I have a girl? How old is she?
