From Owl Rescue Centre
This sneaky little lady has been living inside a Shoprite store in Thokoza for the last few weeks. She was a difficult customer, had all her hiding spots well mapped out, just in case some owl rescuers came knocking. That’s Jacob in the photo, he’s their security gent who offered a great deal of help in rescuing her. We don’t often tag company rescues anymore, but we know Shoprite South Africa loves owls
TY. It seems intuitive to me for chickens but I’d be scared shitless to grab an owl by the feet waiting for that death maw to latch down on my arm.
At some point I’m sure they just accept it as a part of the job.
A little while ago, one of the rescues posted a pic of a nice young lady who just got qualified to do some bigger role with the animals. She’s all proud and smiling in the pic, but she had a nice gash on her face from a bird that didn’t appreciate her help that week.
We can’t fault them for not understanding the people are there to help them. When I had to give cats pills, they’ve bitten or scratched me, but it’s just what they do to try and stay safe. I guess this owl is small enough he knows what it can do to him and what he could be in for. He works with big cats and jackyls and such, so I’m sure he’s gotten worse than what this little guy can dish out! 😅
You’re awesome. Thank you for taking the time to explain.
It’s my pleasure! I’m here for all your owl related needs!
