Owls are more annoying birds in the countryside, as long as someone hears the owl's call, some people will scold the owl, and some people will be uneasy. Because if the owl calls in the countryside, something bad will happen.
The owl is a bird and a national second-class protected animal in China. Most inhabit trees , with mostly brown feathers and large and broad heads. As the name suggests, owls naturally have a cat-like face on their head, and they are nocturnal carnivores. They mainly use carrion, insects, rodents and other animals, this way of eating can be said to be beneficial to humans, so why are owls spurned by humans in rural areas?
俗话说：“不怕夜猫子哭，就怕夜猫子笑”这是为什么呢？
People often say that "night owls" are people who do not sleep late at night. However, the real night owls are owls, which are nocturnal, daytime sleeping animals.
Folklore is said to be a spiritual animal that can predict the death of humans. When an owl is excited or frightened, it makes that "gurgling" sound and hears goosebumps when it hears others. Listen to the people in the village saying that wherever someone is dying, the owl will appear wherever it is, and make the kind of "clucking" sound like a baby crying and laughing, and report the mourning in advance.
When I was a child, my grandfather was sick at home for a long time, and he relied on drugs to stay alive almost every day. A few days before my grandfather died, I did hear very gloomy bird calls, which lingered in my ears, which was really frightening. What is even more ominous is that my grandfather's health is getting weaker and weaker, and he died in those two days.
When I grew up, I heard the old man say that owls belong to a kind of "mourning bird" and "soul chasing bird", they are ominous things. They have a special ability – the head can rotate 270 degrees. Just like this, it will give people a strange feeling, as if they want to take away people's souls, which is very terrifying. Moreover, as long as you hear an owl calling nearby, you will die without accident, so it is also spurned by humans.
为什么说猫头鹰叫就会死人？
It is true that owls can predict the death of human beings, and there is indeed a scientific basis.
Research has shown that owls have an extremely sensitive sense of smell. They can smell gases that we don't normally smell. Our human body is an electrolyte composed of acids and alkali salts, and when people die before death, the electrolytes in the body will accelerate the decomposition, and at the same time as the decomposition, the human body will also emit a smell of carrion. This smell is something that most people can't smell. Then the owls that love carrion will naturally come when they smell the smell, thinking that they can eat a big meal, and fly to the vicinity of the taste and make a "giggling" sound.
Secondly, the owl's call is actually very harsh, and the sound transmission path is quite long. If the sound reaches the ears of humans, humans will involuntarily panic, which is why everyone thinks that owls are ominous things. Here the editor also hopes that everyone will not have bad ideas about owls, and at the beginning it was also described that owls are actually good for humans, it is a beneficial bird, for us to repel insects and rats. Instead of spurning it, we should protect it.
