The Barn Owl… An Introduction to Owl Pellet Labs Video
PRODUCT DETAILS
The barn owl is probably the most popular animal in study today. This is due in part to the fascination we have with animals not often encountered, but primarily due to a by-product of this nocturnal raptor – owl pellets. This video describes the habits of the barn owl and takes you through its life cycle from courtship through fledging of young. Computer animation is used to show the adaptations which allow the barn owl to find prey in darkness and process food into nutrients and pellets. The final portion of the video is devoted to an overview of techniques with owl pellets, including dissection and identification of prey and their skeletal parts. 15 minutes.
