I've glad you did the right thing and took him to a rehabilitation center. Something was very wrong with him if he seemed comfortable with humans.

I thought the same, there are several videos around showing injured/ill owls which are oddly non aggressive, i'd say this one has head trauma, I can tell by the way he is closing the eyes, there's a certain lack of synchrony and coordination... BUT it could be very well me an you are wrong and the owl was fine, which I want and im going to believe in this case (until further information is given by the video's owner)
It is important to remember NOT to use poison in traps to exterminate mice and rats, because raptors like owls, eagles and hawks find them and eat them. They end up getting sick and dying a slow death also. If you need to exterminate mice and rats, use snap traps in places under the house in the crawl space where only they can get to. Using poison is inhuman, and kills a lot of good animals unintentionally, not only the predators that eat them, but also squirrels and rabbits.
You're exactly right Don. I worked for the most well known pest control company in the U.S., and so many people didn't want us to use snap traps and similar instant kill methods because they didn't think they were humane. They never stop to consider what the rodenticide block methods can lead to.
also in california or areas with large birds, please remove bullets or collect the carcass of animals shot down. lead poisoning kills so many of scavengers and some pest controlling birds :( (only mentioned ca bc the california condors still struggling because of this)
Jay Moto i dont get that at all. id rather take a bullet to the back of the head/nervous system than be poisoned to death if i had to choose a way to go
Don Great advice, Don! I absolutely loathe rat poison. I have a friend who is a wildlife rehabber & she sees so many sick birds of prey who had secondary poisoning. Cats as also vulnerable to it. Wish the stuff was outlawed.
Barney is absolutely adorable. But I’m glad you took him/her to a rehabilitation center. The owl has the best chances of going back to a happy life in the wild with the people who work there.
I rescued one that was hit by a truck. I kept him in a cage covered with some heat and started to feed him water via a syringe. On day three he was alert and I feed him raw beef and chicken, day 7 I took him outside and he flew into a tree and stayed there for a day or so, then one day he flew off.
Once you fall in love with a bird your heart will never be the same. I’ve had the privilege of living with companion parrots for 30 years. I lost my 27 y/o Severe Macaw after having raised her from a baby. Hand fed her like her mama did and weaned her. My heart aches everyday for my amazing girl bird. I was her favorite “tree”.
I love that sound too!! It is so nice to hear. I had a new neighbor across the street. He heard the owls at night and thought it was a dog barking. They do sound like that at first if you don't know what it is.
Andromeda Spark he could be the greatest guy on earth but in the USA if someone on the left disagrees with him they will vilify him as if he is Satan’s right hand.
I love owls so much, there’s a family of them that live in my palm tree that greet me every morning before I go to work, moving their heads around haha
I said "He was a Barn Owl but I meant to say a Barred Owl; After a two days we took the Owl to the rehab center and after I filled out all the information they took Him, but when they came to take him, He did not want to leave me and they had to pull him away from me. It was the strangest thing ever. I could not believe how much he flapped his wings and fought to stay with me, and i teared up all the way Home. But I knew I did the right thing. Thanks for asking
Weber247: it was a sad time for me, but i had to sign him over to the animal clinic. and they will not let you know where because some people will try to come back and get it. Some people get really weird and even violet about it. So I had to sign him over. I teared up all the way home.

We just found one that got hit. Thank you for being wonderful. Ours went to a vet and got picked up by someone that does wildlife rehabilitation. It was an honor to help him. I know you understand. :)
So nice of you to rescue this wild animal. Now he will have a chance to live the full life of an owl once rehabbed. Great job. I would have done the same thing if this hurt owl was on my property.
Flower Girl. Wait, didn't he just say he caught that owl.How does anyone catches an owl? Hunting for owls? Targeting a owl,a top predator, only makes sense if a farmer claims livestock losses. That seems unlikely & even if that were the situation eliminating owls from the environment would result in explosive vermin numbers !Potentially, a far more expensive problem than the loss of a few chickens.
Andrew I rescued it on the side of the road, it had evidently been grazed by a car, so i brought it home and nursed it for a few days. He started doing so much better. Best animal I ever had
That is the coolest video. The owl was very lucky you saved him. You restore my faith in humanity. I also raised a baby bird for a couple weeks that fell from the nest. Then released him back to his mom who was in a tree by the balcony (outside squacking at me periodically) once he was able to fly. Feels great to help animals.
Thanks for trying to help the bird, but it could've been a fledgling. It is perfectly normal for them to be out of the nest, and the parents are usually close by, keeping watch. No need to "save" a fledgling ffr.
@@vrockchick you're wrong. The bird fell from it's nest high up but landed in soft bushes where my little dog sniffed it out and was going nuts. He actually was the one that saved him. It's not common for fledglings to be out of the nest.
@@jamesc7121 it is normal for a FLEDGLING to be out of the nest. It is not normal for a NESTLING to be out of the nest, which is what you helped. While it's all good intentioned, it isn't best for us to intervene like that. The needed to be put back in the nest or in a makeshift nest near its nest OR get taken in by a wildlife rehabber. I didn't know the full details of your story, so I apologize. But no, I'm not wrong. It's natural for fledglings to be out of the nest, and it's best to keep our intervention to a minimum unless we're a professional!
What a sweet relationship you two have developed in such a short time. I'm sorry he/she can't stay around your place. Thank you for helping him/her out. You're a good human being. You obviously have a great love & respect for animals & I'm sure they can sense that & feel that they can trust you. Keep up the good work!
Well, at least he wasn't nodding, which would be indicative of a more severe head trauma. He was really acting like either he was really out of it or he was an imprint, which would be concerning if someone else had him as a baby cuz he wouldn't have learned to take care of himself, but whatever raptor center he was taken to would have made sure he could hunt and survive in the wild before releasing him. :) Good job getting him to the right people!
I have two chickens that have become my pets. They follow me everywhere in my yard and garden. They jump in my lap for petting and come when I call them. It’s awesome.
You rock. Hope he has a great life after healing and being set free. Thank you for genuinely caring. May you have good Karma for caring for the creatures you rescue ❤
I know this video is old, but the way this owl acts, did you ever wonder if he was kept illegally by someone as a pet? He seems so comfortable with you guys
bigbluesparky Wow, what's it like to live in your own private reality? I'd feel sorry for you but you don't care whether I live or die, so why on earth should I waste my pity on you? You're being lied to on a massive scale and frankly, you enjoy it. The most important thing is you are a minority of a minority, as loud as you are online. Enjoy your guns, they mean more to you than the people and society you live in, as well as every part of the Constitution that you claim to venerate. Washington and the Founding Fathers would look at you and those who think like you as if you were the enemy. One day your grandchildren will look back at you and your behaviour they way my generation do in Germany - as an object lesson so as to avoid falling into the same trap all over again.
Omg so cool! What a beautiful creature! I would've thought u had him forever then i heard u say you had just found him the night before!!!??? Wow! That's amazing! You are such a kind man and that owl is amazing! I really wish u could keep him too!!😢
That's amazing because owls can't see very well at daytime they're actually nocturnal animals and I do most of their hunting at night so he must have really made an impression on that owl in order for it to hang out with him during the day because that's when their most vulnerable they're basically blind in the Sun or daytime
Greg there are two different kinds of Owls a Barn Owl and a Barred Owl and this was a Barred Owl. I made a mistake when I called him a Barn Owl in the video.
Aww, I took care of an adult barred owl, had rehabilitated in our house. They really do become fond of you, once they trust you, they are very affectionate. Love head scratches and pets and love to snuggle close to you.
I don’t think he’s caught. Seems like he could fly away anytime he likes! He sending out with you because he likes you and if you keep feeding him He might just hang around...
They are almost cat like to me in colour and there love of close affection. The way they can rotate there head 360 degrees is something too. There is truly something very warming of humans to owls over other birds ... very unique little creatures
Yup! I've watched one calling, and the feathers at their throat really ruffle and bulge out! (I photographed that one, it looks like she was straining!) I also like when they just call "You-Allllllll!" ;)
"it bit me once and now we are friends."
I wonder if it works on humans 2
That’d be interesting 🤔
@@N-HTTi With humans, it is usually the opposite. "We WERE friends until he bit me."
Isn't that how we all met our best friends in pre school? 😅
Me with my freinds
@@N-HTTi If it's a Zombie, definitely, but depending on the type of "Zombie" disease, it will be a hit or miss "frenemy" situationship.

@ da broncobabe , because they are adorable top apex predators. Give me this over a dog anyday
He is at an owl rehabilitation center and will be re-released to the wild
TheSoundDiamond it would be cool if they would release it in your area so you can still see him.
I agree. we have those and great horned owls
here in my property in oregon

Barney is absolutely adorable. But I’m glad you took him/her to a rehabilitation center. The owl has the best chances of going back to a happy life in the wild with the people who work there.
This is why, in some parts of the world, the owl is called the "sky kitteh".
Rebecca Haninger wow! I've never heard that, amazing.
Meg and mog
In Chinese owl translates to “cat-head eagle” 😂
@CMDR BouncyStickman The internet.
we call them " cat headed bird" in Cantonese
I rescued one that was hit by a truck. I kept him in a cage covered with some heat and started to feed him water via a syringe. On day three he was alert and I feed him raw beef and chicken, day 7 I took him outside and he flew into a tree and stayed there for a day or so, then one day he flew off.

J Bro but do you love pet rats? i love pet rats so much as they love to chill on your lap and give kisses to your fingers its just too cute.
Too bad that pet parrots will soon be next to impossible to get.
Such a sweet creature...

I used to live in a wooded area and we would hear barred owls hooting back and forth at night. I miss them.
BloodylocksBathory You and me both!
@Dominique Lavalle Nope, "barred". Different type of owl and super common in some places, I hear them every night where I am.
Who?

Is the owl ok? Sometimes they end up spending the rest of theyre lives in a sanctuary because of injuries.
Would be a nice follow up.

I'm tearing up just reading this. What a cutie! He needs to be back in the wild, though. Better for him. Owls are the coolest!
You did a good thing, sir!
Man, that's sad but good. Thank you for looking after this wonderful creature.
You must be a special soul for a wild owl to trust you so much. :-)
The Blue Morpho my thoughts exactly
We met the guy at Cabela's today and heard his story. What a great rescue and then taking care of the owl!
Ken, I remember that !
He is such a calm sweet owl 🦉. Seems like he understands every bit

Thats a sacred animal , respect for helping him.💯
