They are at the top of the food chain. NOTHING eats them. NOTHING.

Snowy Owl
the snowy owl changes the environment by keeping control of their populations of their prey
All owls are birds of prey, meaning yes, they are predators.
both because they get eaten and eat other animals so that is my answer
The similarities of an elf owl and a snowy owl are there likings of enjoying the night life. They both hunt small mammals, small insects and other birds. Their talons are similar by helping them catch prey. Hope this helped!!
Mice hares and other things like that.
Excellent vision.Many rodent species as prey. This owl appears to be extending its range southward.
Most countries protect birds of prey, including the US. The snowy owl is not an endangered species, however.
As with most owls, the mother stays and keeps the young warm, whilst keeping predators at bay. The father owl hunts continuously to keep his family fed, often lining the nest edge with prey that is at that time surplus to requirements. Once the young snowy owls are too demanding for the male snowy owl, and large enough to leave, the female snowy owl joins in the hunt and supply of fresh prey. Eventually, the young snowy owls are encouraged to chase their own prey, initially caught but not killed by the parent snowy owls.
Snowy owls are protected species, as are all Birds of Prey. However, the snowy owl is not an endangered species.
Its big golden eyes make them see farther and watch out for its prey
