Yes. I'm sure it's legal because I've seen people selling theirs on the internet, from places like Manchester. Well if you are planning on getting an owl, good luck!
In the UK, we have 5 main types of owl, The Barn Owl The Tawny Owl The Little Owl The Long-Eared Owl and The Short Eared Owl.
in the UK, yes you can have domestic barn owls. But in the U.S.A you have to have a falconers license to keep any bird of prey.
YOU MUST BE 14 to buy pet on own Apparently 16 in the UK
Approximate numbers, which vary considerably from year to year: Barn Owl - Tyto Alba - 4000 pairs in the UK Little Owl - Athene noctua - 6000 to 12000 pairs in Britain Tawny Owl - Strix aluco - 20 000 pairs in Britain Long-Eared Owl - Asio otus - 1500 to 5000 pairs in the UK Short-Eared Owl - Asio flammeus - 1000 to 3500 pairs in Britain.
It can depend on where you live. In some places the Barn Owl is very scarce and even endangered. If you are in the U.S., the Barn Owl is rare in midwestern states and some New England states. It is also rare in the UK. Barn Owls are more often heard than seen. Because of their silent flight, a Barn Owl can fly right over you and you'd be unaware unless you happened to look up at the right moment. On the other hand, if the Barn Owl lets out one of its trademark screams, you would definitely know it was there. Barn Owls possibly the most vocal of the owls. They have over 16 different vocalizations that have been identified, including screams, screeches, squawks, clicking, and hissing. All owls are very difficult to find during the day because they stay very still and blend in with their surroundings. One way to see Barn Owls is to find a local Barn Owl nesting box and stake it, being sure to not interfere in any way, and NEVER to climb up to the box. Just observe from a distance, using binoculars, and most of all LISTEN. If there are Barn Owls about you'll hear them first.
