The National Center is working with the Northwest Congressional delegation, scientists, and conservation groups to request new legislation to protect the old-growth forests that the owl, salmon, and our clean water depend upon. New legislation has become increasingly vital to the owl's continued survival, if only as a critical counterweight to the administration's interference in the scientific underpinnings of the development of a credible Northern Spotted Owl Recovery Plan.

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.

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.
Preserve dense forests where it occurs. Although able to survive in cutover forests, this habitat is more suited to a very close relative, the barred owl. The barred owl is pushing the spotted owl out of these areas, and only the preservation of the great forests can help the spotted owl. Barred owls rarely frequent deep, dense woods.
Snowy owls are protected species, as are all Birds of Prey. However, the snowy owl is not an endangered species.
