In people's minds, owls are mysterious animals that come out day and night, haunted by ghosts, and their calls are a little frightening.
In many movies, the owl often appears as a negative image. In the dark forest, there is a pair of eyes that are quietly staring at you.
In the zoo, we often see all kinds of cute owls.
Unexpectedly, it turned out to be a robber, and every nest it lived in was stolen by it.

Owls only do one thing in their lives, and that is hunting, they are sharp-eyed and precise, but they are sloppy in nesting. Every nest of an owl comes from its prey, killing it and occupying its nest, such as a vole.
Eerie owls that prey on all kinds of rats. Nocturnal owls, eating an astonishing amount of food, can eat a few to a dozen rats in one night, in the owl eye coverage area, voles can not run rampant, thus protecting the crops.
There are some smaller birds or eagle cubs that are also in the owl's diet.
Eating rabbit meat and living in rabbit holes is also a good choice
Powerful at night
Owl is also known as the aerial killer, in addition to the super night vision ability as an aid, a pair of sharp claws is also its magic weapon, coupled with flexible reaction ability, so that the owl's hunting accuracy is quite high, and the little owl from the beginning of the flight, will be each other hunting practice, from a young age to practice.
Unexpectedly, the overlord of the air, the eagle, would one day be planted in the hands of the owl. At night, the eagle's eyesight has dropped greatly, which is the time when the defense ability is the weakest, while the owl is just the opposite, doubling the combat power at night, at this time, if it wants to shoot, even the fierce eagle is not his opponent.
The red-tailed hawk tried to grab food, and the owl had a head-on attack, but was eventually overturned by the owl and fled.

Owl vs Tiger
Don't look at the owl during the day, it is motionless and cute; but at night, it is the king of the night sky, the real killer of birds.
