Would you keep a pet owl in a cage or would you respect their freedom to hunt cute furry animal at night?

Owls. Bird of Prey Or Pet Bird?

Hi Icy, did you know Owls and Hawks are related

[green.fields]

No, they are not a pet.

[izabsmiling]

are you permitted to keep them ?

I wouldn't keep them as pets .We have a variety of owls where we are, including the Barking Owl

Fly free little owl 😄

My (creepy) brother has 2 taxidermied (sp?) owls.  Whenever one of his (also creepy) friends find a dead animal in good condition, they give it to him, he freezes it and later takes it to his (super creepy) taxidermist friend.

Do stuffed owls count as pets?

[cat_mioux]

That's just ...... creepy.

One of the VERY creepy things about it, is that no one else seems to find it creepy!  He is a teacher and the parents of his students and other teachers bring in dead frozen animals for him!  IMO his house is little a horror house.  Creepy creepy creepy!

I used to collect statues of owls......sold them all on ebay

I hadn't given it any conscious thought, Hawk,no.

I suppose it's logical though.

I admire Hawks and Eagles and Owls and things, but I'm a bit scared of them.
