Owl found in a ditch in early January and thought to be injured turned out to be “simply extremely obese,' British wildlife charity says.
This is roughly a third heavier than a large healthy female little owl. The extra weight meant she was unable to fly properly due to the fatty deposits.
The sanctuary concluded that"natural obesity" was to blame. Due to an unseasonably warm December, the area where the gluttonous owl was found was"crawling with field mice and voles." When these two things happened to coincide, “she absolutely gorged herself and got very fat. She had a lovely time, but went too far,” he said.
