Are they an invasive species?

[-] [email protected] 57 points 1 year ago

Unfortunately so. They are an Eastern US species that has been moving ever westward. And they are, in bird law terms, 'huge dicks'. They've been systematically kicking Spotted Owls out of their traditional roosting spots for about a decade now. Spotted Owls are pushovers, so they've been losing breeding ground. And barred owls are not just dicks to other birds, they don't like humans much either.

Have we considered that that's their secret to success?

[-] [email protected] 8 points 1 year ago

Being dicks sure worked for out well for humans.

Wait a second, humans are driving themselves extinct by emitting too much carbon
