Owls swallow much of their prey whole, including indigestible parts like bones, hair, and feathers. Their digestive systems remove the nutrients from these materials, and then the waste is squeezed into small balls that are easily regurgitated. This is much safer and more efficient than if all the indigestible material, including sharp bones, had to pass through their intestines.

Owls do care for their young. In most species, both the male and female will take care of the young. They will take turns, even. One will sit on the eggs while its mate brings it food.

Owls cannot chew, and so they have to swallow their prey whole. Indigestible bits like fur, feathers, bones, and teeth, wind up in a tightly-packed 'pellet' that is regurgitated onto the ground.
