Ep. 60: The Owl Theory
Explicit content warning
08/23/23 • 61 min
We start by discussing the most common conflict people could have with raptors, and take a deep dive on a very popular case in which an owl was accused of murder. You can see more about this case on the Netflix documentary "The Staircase" or the dramatized HBO miniseries "The Staircase".
Ashley also appeared on episode 108 of the Just the Zoo of Us podcast to talk about owl biology if you'd like to learn more there.
