  • True Facts About The Owl

Transcription

here are true facts about be Owl. baby Owls are called Owlets and they look like a cotton ball that grew a face, and legs. Owlets are born without flight feathers. the Owl has large front facing eyes which give it a wide range of binocular vision. its eyes on nearly immobile in their sockets and therefore it must swivel its head around its neck to see. Some owls bob their heads up and down in order to maximize their depth perception. try it right now. focus on object and bob your head up and down. that's right keep bobbing your head. it doesn't really work for humans, but you do look like an idiot. as the Owl grows older it developes its flying feathers oh my thats cute, he's like little baby. He likes being pet, its really the eyes isn't it, it's adorable. oh look this ones playing with his friend. wait, what you doing to that Bird? crap you're not playing don't try to hide it. I already saw it. beneath those fluffy feathers the owl is what we call a bird of prey. because it eats prey. just as the as the Owls call us apes of the hamburger, because we eat hamburgers. The Owl is a specialized hunting machine its talons on are zygodactyl, two in front two in back, and their grip is the strongest of the raptors 500 pounds per square inch eight times stronger than the human. they crush their victims, then tear off little strips before swallowing them whole... digesting them and then vomiting out the bones and fur in a small pellet. and this is why it's polite to throw up at an owl dinner party. The Owl is a quiet hunter. it has specialized feathers on the front of its wings that reduce turbulence and allow it to fly in relative silence. if silence were loudness they would be the loudest flying bird. that's a terrible metaphor. the Owl's face is basically like a giant ear. The specialized feathers of its facial disc channel sound to its ear holes, like a fuzzy satellite dish. that's nasty, yep thats an earhole many owls have asymmetrical year holes; one is higher than the other. By sensing tiny differences in the delay in volume of sound as it arrives in each ear, ...the Owl is able to create a three-dimensional auditory map of its surroundings. try riding a bicycle at night and picking up on moving burrito with your feet, based on the sound that it makes. That is how an Owl do. When they aren't being quiet, Owls make a wide variety of sounds. perhaps the most famous of these sounds is the 'hoo hoo' sound made by some Owls. It reminds me of the fairy tale, where a young girl is lost in the forest, and she sees an Owl and asked it 'do you know where my mother is?' and the Owl responds 'why the hell would I know where your mother is?!' 'are you stupid? and why are you fairy tale children always getting lost in forests and hallucinating about animals that can talk?" and then the owl swooped down and ripped the little girl's face off and ate her eyeballs. and then the owl hooted 'hoo hoo' it's a German fairy tale so its a little dark I guess. maybe it's the translation? Nope not the translation. says right here rips her face off. oh god there's even a picture. just remember don't do drugs because an Owl may just to rip your face off

Description

The Indian long-eared hedgehog is a relatively small hedgehog (~17 cm, 200–500 grams). It is a nocturnal animal that is often found inhabiting burrows.[3] Similar to most hedgehogs it has spines on its back, embedded into a muscle sheath. This sheath forms a bag-like structure that the animal can hide inside for protection. It can also erect its spines to further protect from predators. The Indian long-eared hedgehog has a well developed set of senses because of its large ears, eyes and whiskers near its snout.[4] These senses, especially smell, help them find food and/or a possible partner.[5]

Diet

The Indian long-eared hedgehog is insectivorous, feeding on small insects. Because of their arid desert habitat they often receive most of the water they need from their food supply.[6]

Distribution

The Indian long-eared hedgehog is found in India (Gujarat, Rajasthan and Uttar Pradesh) and Pakistan (North West Frontier Province, Punjab and Sindh). It experiences extreme heat in the months of May and June and very cold weather in December and January.[6]

Reproduction

They are seasonal breeders. The males are active from March to August[3] while the females are active from April to August.[6] It is notable for a quite complex mating ritual that involves "dancing" around females for several days before mating.
