This sickens me. Why would anyone shoot a Great Grey Owl, an owl whose primary food are rodents which most people consider pests (voles have a hasty habit of digging under fresh lawns and creating tracks all through the lawn..it really looks pretty let me tell ya). I hope the person responsible for shooting an Owl gets caught, prosecuted, and stuck in jail for his/her stupidity.

From Lake of the Woods County, Gretchen Mehmel sent in a secondhand report of two GREAT GRAY OWLS at Long Point on Lake of the Woods on November 27th. These were spotted by a resident there. Jeff Birchem picked up a dead one that had been shot near Warroad. Two more were picked up by Beth Siverhus after being hit by cars, and sent to the Raptor Center for rehabilitation. One was found east of Clementson along MN 11, and one was picked up 6.5 miles south of Warroad on CR12.
