An owl's eye can occupy a significant portion of its skull, often accounting for about 50% of its total skull size. This large eye size enhances their night vision and depth perception, crucial for hunting in low-light conditions. The eyes are fixed in their sockets, which is why owls can turn their heads up to 270 degrees to gain a broader field of vision.
