Fast forward to the Christmas season. At this time of year, Rockefeller Center, a landmark in New York, erects a huge Christmas tree in front of the building, and from the moment it lights up, it marks the official arrival of The Christmas season in New York.
It is said that every year the Christmas tree is the largest in North America that year, and it is also the tree of choice, but this year's Christmas tree is even more different - when it was transported to New York to unbox, the workers found a small owl hidden in the tree!
A worker at the logistics company in charge of the delivery at the time found that there was such a small owl hiding in the branches when he unpacking the Christmas tree! He immediately contacted the Ravensbeard Wildlife Center, a recent animal protection group, hoping they could help rescue the hapless little guy.
From packing to unpacking, the entire transportation process takes about three days, which means that the little owl has been trapped in a tree without eating or drinking for at least three days, and it should not be in good condition.
Fortunately, the staff of the rescue center quickly received the little owl, and brought it back to the protection center for the first time, fed some liquid food and then ate some small mice, and slowly began to recover.
At first, the staff who found it looked at its size and thought it was a baby; but later, through identification, this little guy should be the smallest palm owl in Northeast America, also called the palm ghost owl. They are generally born in the spring, so don't look at its small size, according to their age, people are not a baby.
After a few days of meticulous conditioning, the hapless little guy was back to life. Some time ago, the official social media accounts of Rockefeller Center also made an announcement: this owl little guy's journey into the city can finally end, and it can be released into the wild!
Now that I think about it, this little guy may have been eating hot pot and singing in the tree at that time, and suddenly he was packed up with the tree and came to the New York metropolis, which is also a very strange experience, right?
