1. Both females and males take care of their young. There are, on average, six owlets in a nest, requiring 74 rodents a night to feed. Both parents need to hunt to feed their family.
2. Like all birds, the owl has no teeth, so it either swallows its prey whole or tears larger prey into smaller pieces. Later, it regurgitates what it cannot digest.
3. Owls have specially designed feathers that allow them to fly noiselessly. This ability enables them to sneak up on their prey unnoticed; the silence also makes it possible to hear their prey while in flight.
4. Although owls have very keen eyesight, they cannot move their eyes in the socket, making it necessary to turn their entire head to see in a different direction. They can rotate their heads up to 270 degrees.
5. Most owls hunt at night; however, the snowy owl hunts when it is light, mostly at dawn and dusk. It eats small rodents such as rabbits, birds, fish, and their favorite, lemmings.
