Why is the spotted owl endangered?
The spotted owl is a habitat specialist and only lives in old-growth forests. Because of logging practices, the amount of old-growth forests has declined, and with it, the spotted owl. Its closest relative, the barred owl, does better in younger forests and has replaced the spotted owl in much of its range.
Why is the spotted owl endangered when the other owls are not?
A bird of dense northwestern forests, the spotted owl's habitat was being slowly destroyed by unregulated logging, clear cutting the forests where the bird lived. Then, as select cutting was introduced, to avoid destroying the forests completely, a close relative, the more aggressive barred owl, began showing up in increasing numbers, displacing the spotted owl. The barred owl does well in cut over forests, and is pushing the spotted owl closer to the brink.
