Burrowing Owls reside in open dry grasslands and deserts of North and South America, primarily in the west, although also in the higher, drier parts of south central Florida. Small, plump, speckled brown owls with white eyebrows, no ear tuft feathers, yellow eyes and a short tail, these long legged owls differ from other typical owls in that they are diurnal (active during the day), the females are slightly smaller than males, and, as their name implies, they dwell in underground burrows that they either build themselves or inherit from ground dwelling rodents. Among owl species, burrowing owls are the most tolerant of non-threatening human activity, and are therefore the most likely to be seen. Favored perches include fence railings, bare trees and wires. At only 9" long, in flight these small predators may be mistaken for doves or other small ground nesting birds. Other common names for the burrowing owl include Billy owl, ground owl, howdy owl, long-legged owl, prairie dog owl and prairie owl. Second only to the Barn Owl in terms of their benefit to agriculture, these opportunistic feeders will eat small insects, reptiles and rodents. Listed as a species of concern, habitat destruction poses the most serious threat as the burrowing owl needs a 1 mile radius per owl to survive.

A beautiful specimen, our Bone Clones® replica Burrowing Owl Skull captures the textural detail and anatomical structure (including the delicate sclerotic rings), and is painted to match the coloration, of the original.
