The Great gray owl is one of the world's largest owls, measuring 80cm long. During winter, these birds display incredible hunting skills in the snowy fields of central Canada. From the sky, they can detect rodents hidden under deep snow and catch them in one swoop. Their secret lies in their face, the largest among owl species. It serves as a parabolic antenna to catch the slightest sounds of rodents and accurately determine their location. The camera crew also spotted fluffy chicks in the forest during springtime. This episode highlights the giant owl's surprising hunting techniques and parenting methods. |
