Owls

It could be sleeping or looking for a place to sleep

Depending on the species of owl, the eyes can be black, brown, orange and yellow.

Owls' eyes come in three different colors. The owls that live in North America have yellow or brown eyes. European owls have orange eyes.

No, although packs can take down elk even though elk weigh well over 550 lbs, though coyotes do get their calves.

of course they will... i live in grande cashe Alberta, Canada for a few yrs... if they get hungry enough a pack will eat almost anything.. i have heard stories of coyotes, teasing a mother grizley bear and taking baby cubs...

Owls in fact do NOT eat butterflies. Owls prefer something bigger such as rabbits, or squirrels.

Yes.

Personally I would say "No". But I think the honest answer is that we just don't know. And begs the question: "What do you mean by a "raptor"?" Do you mean a bird, a predator with a hooked bill for tearing flesh and strong, piercing talons for grabbing and holding prey? Or are you thinking of something you saw in the cinema, a T-rex maybe? A giant flesh eating dinosaur. And are they in fact the same?

The finding, describing, classifying of birds (or any organisms) is called "Taxonomy" and is still an evolving process. Historically a lot of biologists would have classified Owls (and there are two main types of owl) differently from raptors, based on their appearance and their jizz (behaviours).

But now I'm guessing that both our ability to read DNA, and the increasing number of finds of dinosaurs with feathers, and with wings, has shaken things up more than a little in the past few years. Recent evidence suggests owls may have a history going back at least to the last great extinction event (65.5 million years ago); and there is confusion there about whether they were related to raptors. Whilst leading to the opposite conculsion recent DNA examination suggest that owls are much more closely related to birds like nightjars, than they are to falcons (which are definitely raptors).

But to go back to that first question: "What do you mean by a "raptor"?" Because if you mean a bird, a predator, with a hooked bill for tearing flesh and strong, piercing talons for grabbing and holding prey? Then that description cleary fits and owl. And you must conclude that an owl is a raptor.

But if you are trying to classify birds according to their origins, their relatives, their DNA, and not just their behaviours (which are an adaption to their environemnt), then you might say no Owls are a different and belong in a different order to raptors.

So I guess that's the honest answer. It depends on what you mean by the uestion. And if you want one based on the owls heritage, we still don't really know. It's something biologists will be working on for some time to come.

Birds that would eat a chipmunk are eagles an other birds that usually are seen hunting.

Animals like foxes, hyenas, and any medium sized animal that would consider a chipmunk a full course meal. A lion or tiger would think its too small and it would only be a like a snack to them.

barred owls eat tons of food. they are probably really fat. well they eat, (this may take a while) field mice, shrews, dear mice, small squirrels, baby rabbits, bats, moles, possums, minks, weasels, spiders, chickens, turtles, fish, frogs, snakes, lizards, crayfish, some insects......... and probably some more but i can't remember any more. hope this helps!!!

Yes, On Oct.6th 2010 I was bow hunting in Yale, Michigan, 16 ft. off the ground in a tree when a screech owl whacked me up side the head at dusk. It then landed in a tree just in front of me (that's how I knew it was an owl) facing me. Once I composed myself after the initial surprise, I immediately text a friend to what had just happened. As I text him, I believe the same owl struck me again in the exact same place aside my head. Luckily, I was wearing a face mask which had material covering the sides of my head. I originally thought it was a fluke that he struck me but the phone was illuminating my face when he struck me the second time. That was enough for me.

the white tailed rabbit, the frog eye wolf and the 8 legged snake

they need about a shed sized space . x

Bats are mammals like you and me, hence, have anuses.

34-43 cm length,206-475 grams. wingspan 85-104cm.also females are slightly larger than males.

Ostriches were first imported into Australia in 1868 or 1869 when the Zoological Acclimatisation Society of Victoria brought five juvenile birds from South Africa. These birds were taken to the Wimmera district of Western Victoria. Farming of ostriches was gradually begun and spread across the border to South Australia where conditions were ideal. Ineffective farming methods resulted in the release of some of these birds in South Australia in the late 1800s, and consequently there are known to be some feral populations in two quite different areas - around Port Augusta and Murray Bridge.

snowy owls aren't really endangered. The status of a snowy owl is Least Concern (LC)

curved beaks to get the insects they eat, sharp claws, small bodies so they can follow their prey where ever they go, large wings to swoop down and make a suprise attack on their prey some of this might be right like idk about the wings and small bodies but it sounds right

There are 216 known species of owls in the world. Some of the most common North American owls include the great horned owl, eastern screech owl, western screech owl, barn owl, short-eared owl and long-eared owl.

Screech Owls, Great Horned Owls, Barred Owls mainly.

Yes. If the owl is large enough and the mongoose is small enough the owl could catch and eat the mongoose. Unfortunately, the mongeese are a very fast species with incredibly fast reflexes.

I'm sure there are more than one species which have a white face: the barn owl and the snowy owl, for instance.

All living things that are more complex than few multi-celled micro organisms, have spines. Any living thing with a spine, are called invertebrates

Yes, there are, . . . barn owls live in the coniferous forest. I've also heard that spotted owls live there, but I'm not certain.

Dont know what kind of owls are in the coniferous forest, but i know there are a lot of owls. They are a dominate animal species there!!!

Try Long Eared Owl!

it coughs up at least 2 or 3 a day i heard! :)

Barn owls move using their feathers. They have very silent feathers to help them stay quite when prey comes and when a predator comes.

Barn owls also relied on sound ,and they still do, and that is why on of their ears are lower than the other.

The Snowy Owl is a large owl of the typical owl family Strigidae. Snowy owls live on the tundra. They stay in the Arctic during the winter unless their food sources are scarce. They are called snowy owls because their coloring is almost pure white when they are full grown. Their color works as a camouflage.
